A rather innocent-looking cake, too, but that cake would open the door to opportunity - and disaster - for sweet-toothed, bargain-savvy Annabelle Pleasanton. In fact, between a promotion at work, her best friend's engagement, and her discovery of handsome photographer Isaac Matthews, that little cake has managed to turn Annabelle's world upside down. Things go from complicated to downright crazy as Annabelle discovers that handling her new writing assignment and plotting her friend's surprise bridal shower isn't going as easy as she'd hoped. Okay, okay - and appearing as a graceful, charming woman in the presence of Isaac is turning out to be, well, more than just a bit of a catastrophe. Not that Rona, a gorgeous boyfriend-snatching flirt, is helping things in the slightest. And just when things couldn't get any worse, smarmy womanizer Patrique worms his way into her life. Managing her life with the two of them in the picture may be more than she can handle. Then, when a misunderstanding threatens to destroy her job, her most cherished friendship, and her relationship with Isaac, Annabelle's courage and integrity are put to the test. Will she give in to pressure and do what is easy or will she do what she knows is right? In this hilarious yet inspiring novel, The Icing on the Cake offers comical predicaments, surprising twists, and tender moments that will delight readers of all ages. 312450 1 1 2007 The Icing on the Cake total:246|5:86|4:89|3:52|2:17|1:2| 246 978 408 104 4 3 false false Sun Jul 01 00:00:00 -0700 2007 Sat Nov 10 13:10:36 -0800 2007 Tue Feb 19 20:09:48 -0800 2008 more...]]> 4 0 false false Tue Mar 31 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Mar 30 22:03:38 -0700 2009 Tue Mar 31 21:46:41 -0700 2009 Central Coast Living.
