For Jesse Winsloe, the answer is clear: head into hiding. Single again and laid off from work, Jesse flees to Onery Cabin to lick her wounds with her ancient aunt Will—a Granny woman with the secret to healing the lovelorn.Sure, Onery Cabin may be right out of Hollywood's Lifestyles of the Poor and Hillbilly, but Marrying Stone Mountain has its charm—including the local physician's assistant, Piney Baxley, a past recipient of Aunt Will's pungent "heartbreak poultice."Between folk remedies and a "no strings attached" romance, Jesse is beginning to think she's found her own brand of lovesick cure—because there's nothing like a pinch of confidence and a dash of attraction to mend a broken heart.

It had potential but it didn't really live up to it for me.The best part about this book was the one liners and the quotes from Aunt Will. I didn't make it past the first line of Chapter 13 so maybe the story developed into something inte...
I haven't been particularly interested in Morsi's contemporary fiction, but when I saw that the main character of this book was named Jesse Winsloe and that it's set in Marrying Stone, of course I had to read it. (Jesse is indeed a descendent of Anthea Winsloe from the wonderful Simple Jess, and Jes...
My review contains spoilers and they're mostly my thoughts as I went with the book...Reading of The Lovesick Cure was very special for me for two major reasons; one, so far, I haven’t read any of PM’s contemporaries. I picked this one because the blurb reminded me so much of Marrying Stone series, w...
