Spanish Doors

Near thirty, Arden Sidonia is a talented nutritionist who aptly nourishes patients at the hospital and cares for her Gramma Kaira at home. She has found romance and security in a compelling doctor and finally embraces the hope of a family of her own, which she has missed since the desertion of her father when she was nine. But in the blink of an eye, all seems lost. Both career and family crumble when a doctor sets her up to take the fall for the death of one of his patients, and Gramma Kaira who knows she is dying reveals the shocking news that Arden's father is alive and well, living in Spain. Outraged by the deception and with nothing else to lose, Arden journeys to the Iberian Peninsula to confront a man she hardly remembers. In her search, she encounters a magnificent country and its people, all part of her heritage, but she must learn to forgive and allow herself to be taken care of before she can cross the threshold of these newly opened Spanish doors. With heaping portions of good food, good wine, and beautiful, far-off lands, Diana Renfro's debut novel, Spanish Doors, is sure to leave the reader hungering for the next course. Like all good Southern writers, Renfro writes with a strong sense of place where tantalizing food is on the table and there's plenty of good wine for everyone. She's also one heck of a storyteller.
