Sisters in the Mix

By Joni Hilton

Kate is an obsessive compulsive woman with a cooking show. She screams when the paper towels don't tear off straight, somehow gets chocolate to explode, and basically wreaks havoc in the kitchen. She's funny and sarcastic, and viewers love her.But this is no act: Think "Monk" with female hormone issues, wielding a frying pan. Underneath that crazy exterior is, okay, more craziness. Kate compulsively paints out graffiti, corrects grammar on public signs, and tries not to embarrass her husband and three kids. She longs for the days when she created crossword puzzles for the local paper, and tries to convert her therapist into a word person. Still, her life is in relative control because she wisely moved far away from her life's nemesis, her sister-a flambouyant artist and her polar opposite. In this laugh-out-loud chick lit novel, Kate's life turns upside down when the very sister she despises suddenly moves in with her. Jackie is broke (again), hauls "art supplies" in from the garbage dump, makes paper in the blender, and worst of all: Wrangles her way into co-hosting the cooking show. Kate is furious, but the sisters' on-air bickering only raises the ratings.Kate's sense of family obligation and propriety keeps her from throwing Jackie out onto the street, but she makes lists of people she'd like to murder this afternoon, and Numbers One through Three are Jackie. Kate begins a desperate attempt to get Jackie married off and out of the house, but when Jackie's antics finally cause Kate to lose her job, the stakes escalate. How on earth can these two sisters salvage such an impossible situation, and how can Kate avoid spending the rest of her life in a padded cell?
