Southern Delight (Southern Desires Series Book 3) Kindle Edition
Bailey Tasca had been confident and outgoing. Her tomorrows had been filled with dreams of someday making it big as a comedian, but her laughter stopped the day the doctor told her the results: cancer. Now she struggles to redefine herself.
When Don and Bailey meet up again at a friend’s wedding, the one thing neither wanted was to find the chemistry they’d shared in the past now even more explosive.
Don realizes it doesn’t matter what he achieves if Bailey is not by his side to share it. Can he reach Bailey behind her high walls of insecurities and doubt? Bailey must let go of her newly acquired inhibitions and open herself up, both emotionally and physically, if she ever wants her happily ever after. Can their love heal even the deepest wounds?

About the author
Jeannette grew up in a large family, number ten out of eleven children, eight of them being older brothers. She quickly developed a great sense of humor, mostly from necessity. One of her greatest joys is sitting on the porch where they were all raised and hearing the stories from years gone by. Quietly laughing to herself, she notices how they embellish the stories more and more each year.
Storytelling was passed down from her grandfather and mother. Jeannette caught the bug at a very young age. If she didn’t have her head in a book, then she was off somewhere with a notebook, jotting down stories of what she would write if one day she became an author. Although the notebook may have vanished, the stories are still vivid and waiting for the right time to be told.
Despite having an amazing family, there have also been some sorrows in her life, including the loss of loved ones. Over the years, Jeannette has spent countless hours volunteering for different organizations and acting as a caregiver to those dearest to her. As a result, supporting the elderly became of utmost importance.
As she approached a milestone birthday in 2015, she decided to take her passion for writing and blend it with her desire to continue to help others. As she writes her stories, she hopes they touch someone’s life. Within the layers of the romance, the foundation remains throughout and is one that is dear to her; make a difference in someone’s life each day!
In 2016 she met someone who encouraged her to push herself even further and try her hand at spicy intrigue. One year later she has four books in this new series and each one pushing her limits just a bit further.
Like the wind, Jeannette’s life changed directions several times over the years, yet one constant remains: her desire to leave this Earth a little better than when she entered it as she tries to live by these words, Make your mark on the world today as your acts of kindness is all anyone will remember in years to come!

Now...I read the first chapter of "Southern Delight" and I stopped dead in my tracks. Okay...this book was going to cut directly into my damaged heart but I picked the book up again and made my commitment reading deep into the middle of the night. This series of books are literally ones where once you start you might as well just get really comfortable because stopping would be foolish. You won't sleep so just keep going. This book had layer upon layer of suspense filled drama mixed with the signature "Jeannette Winters" romantic charm. Holy Cow can that woman write romance. That said I would also have to say that Ms. Winters is also showing that she has serious writing for amazingly detailed and well executed suspense. Details were rushing at me with rapid fire speed. The story was unfolding at a pace that at times I felt I was not going to be able to take a breath. This was a seriously complex book with our cast of characters being taken deeper and deeper into this mystery started two books ago. Does it bug me that I am left hanging...no because I had such a wonderful romance woven within the fabric of all the chaos of the intense drama. For me it was the most intense of the three...and I thought the other two were intense. If you have not read the previous two books please read them first because you will find yourself more fully invested into these characters who have now become family for me. This is how spectacular this writing is folks. I want to know these people, I want them as friends, and I want to know what happens with the previous characters. I am humbled to call Ms. Winters a FB friend and I am honored to be able to read this quality work. She should be incredibly proud of this work as it is spectacular. Amazing Job! denise bailey
We met Don Farrell in Book 2 Southern Exposure with his best friend Mark Collins. After he and Mark finished Hannah’s Homestead, he once again focused on work. He couldn’t get his mind off Bailey Tasca, Hannah’s best friend. What no one knew was that they spent 1 week together and it is the first-time Don thought about someone that he could care about. But, he tried to reach her for the first couple months and finally gave up.
It is now six months since Bailey talked to Don. He is in her dreams and she even plays some of his voice mails just to hear his voice. Bailey doesn’t want anyone to know that she had cancer and a single Mastectomy. Her hair is gone and her confidence is “gone” She would prefer to crawl into a hole and not come out.
Bailey believes she will never be the same and is “damaged goods” and will never let Don see her again. One problem, Hannah and Mark are getting married and she is the Maid of Honor and Don is the Best Man. She decides that she needs a boyfriend and Mark volunteers his brother Brian Collins (Marines) to pretend to be her boyfriend.
Even with Brian being a buffer, the chemistry between Bailey and Don is off the charts. Don, however, now has a target on his back from the same group that was in Texas then Savannah Georgia and now in Buffalo, NY at his HQ. He must stay away from Bailey to protect her.
Find out if there is even a chance for Bailey and Don, or is it in everyone’s best interest to walk away.
What Didn’t Work:
Same as book 1 and 2: (A) Too much inner dialog. A lot of it should be spoken to the person in front of them. (B) Same as book 1 & 2; is it possible that Brian, Mark’s brother, a Marine, can work this case with Mark when there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight? (C) Typo and grammar errors.

I was given an ARC of this book, and I was thrilled to be able to read it and give my honest feedback
Meet Don Farrell. Don has always believed in working hard and playing harder. The one thing that Don took seriously was business. Suddenly Don finds out there's a target on his back. That's only made Don more determined to succeed. The characters in this book kept me rooted to my seat, engaged during the whole story. Be prepared for an engaging and emotional journey as you follow Bailey and Don in this gripping story.
Meet the lovely Bailey Tasca. Bailey had always been confident, strong and outgoing. Bailey's tomorrow's had always been filled with dreams. Dreams that she believed that someday she would make it big as a comedian. Suddenly Bailey's laughter and carefree nature stopped the day her doctor told Bailey the results: cancer. Now Bailey struggles to find herself again.
When Don and Bailey finally meet up again at a Mark and Hannah’s wedding. The one and only thing was that neither Don and Bailey wanted to find was that they still had chemistry they’d shared in the past now even more explosive.
Don realizes it doesn’t matter what he achieves. Don believes if Bailey is not by his side to share it then it's definitely not worth it. Can Don reach Bailey as she's hiding behind her high walls of insecurities and self doubt? Bailey must now learn to let go of her newly and acquired inhibitions and Bailey learns to open herself up; both emotionally and physically. That's if Bailey ever wants her happily ever after. Can Don & Bailey's love help heal even the deepest wounds?
This book truly hit home for me as I have had family who has suffered breast cancer, some survived, and they found it hard to accept what was happening just like Bailey does. A big heartfelt thank you to Author Jeannette Winters for writing real life issues with such finesse and fact, yet still writing an amazing story.
There should be an option for more than 5 stars as i would definitely give her more but have to settle for 5
