Join us for a delightful night of culinary treats when our guest will be romance author Louisa Edwards. We'll be talking about sexy chefs and enjoying a delicious meal.
About Louisa:
I grew up in Virginia, went to school in Philadelphia, spent five years in Manhattan, and now I live in a teeny town in Ohio. Once an editor of romance novels, now I'm writing my own. My debut novel unites my love of romance with my obsession with Gordon Ramsay. That's right. Food porn.

If it is a summer cook out, can I make some brownies instead of bringing a chocolate cake?
