The Red-Hot Chili Cookoff

The Red-Hot Chili Cookoff

<p><strong>More Than the Chili's Heating Up Cadillac, Texas</strong></p><p>Carlene Lovelle, co-owner of Bless My Bloomers lingerie shop, found a pair of fancy red-silk panties in her husband's briefcase, and all hell is breaking loose. She custom-made those fancy bloomers herself―and she remembers the bimbo who bought them. If her husband had a lick of sense, he'd known there are no secrets in a town like Cadillac. </p><p>Carlene's cohorts―and their mamas―plan to exact revenge on Lenny Joe where it'll hurt the most: break his ten-year winning streak at the prestigious Red-Hot Chili Cook-Off. Never before has a woman dared to compete. But the ladies of Bless My Bloomers are cooking up a storm...and it seems the whole town is taking sides in the showdown. </p><p>Welcome to Cadillac, Texas, where the chili is hot, the gossip is hotter, and friends stick by each other, no matter what the challenge.</p><p><strong>Praise for <em>The Blue-Ribbon Jalapeño Society Jubilee:<br></em></strong>"Hilarious...fast-paced...A high-spirited, romantic page-turner."―<em>Kirkus<br></em>"Humor and down-home charm make this a first-place prize winner."―<em>RT Book Reviews</em>, 4 Stars<br>"In this laugh-out-loud read, bestselling Brown takes her expertise in writing top-notch cowboy romance novels to stir things up...among four female friends."―<em>Booklist<br></em>"Heartwarming and fun...Brown's story reminded me of <em>Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Cafe</em>."―<em>Long and Short Reviews</em></p>
