Sugar Queen

By Sarah Addison Allen...my first exposure to this author. I LOVED it! I can't wait to read her others. The story takes place in a small ski town. The main character finds a woman in her closet and agrees to hide her, like she hides her passion for sugar. She is an only child and has decided her lot in life is to care for her mother, who hates her. She is secretly in love with the mailman. But nothing ever happens...and she will never leave this town...but then things start happening, one thing after the other. Mysteries will be revealed, people have certain things that happen to them. A little magic, human drama, and humor are all part of this novel. I listened to it and definitely didn't fall asleep!
