Sandwich With a Side of Romance

She moved to Sandwich Illinois in search of a new life but ended up in a giant pickle. Sandwich represents hope for twenty-year-old Maddie Buckner and Kyle the eleven-year-old brother Maddie wants to spring out of foster care. Then she loses her new job after less than a day. It’s all Reuben-the-Jerk’s fault and she’s determined to make him right the wrong.   He does so reluctantly by giving her a job at his restaurant The Sandwich Emporium. Then crazy things start happening at the restaurant and Kyle’s foster parents apply to adopt him. To stop it all Maddie must learn the art of humbling herself and accepting the help God has arranged risking her heart to Reuben in the process.  And she’d rather eat a million corned-beef on rye sandwiches than do that. Don’t let the light-hearted cover and title fool you.
