Hitting the Sauce: A delicious caper that could only take place in Atlantic City

By Lisa Shiroff

Lucy Womzak thought she could handle anything-after all, she's a social worker for some of the most eccentric and unique senior citizens in Atlantic City. But nothing prepared her for the day her husband, Lester, ran off with a thinner model.

Armed with a therapy degree, two snarky teenagers, and the ability to make a mean meatloaf, Lucy is determined to rebuild her life. But she gets sidetracked when she discovers that not only had Les been dabbling in low-rent mob activity, but he'd put her family's secret recipe in jeopardy and her seniors in serious danger.

She needs more than just positive thinking and a prayer that things will get better.
Luckily, she has backup: A senior squad with more opinions than sense and zero respect for HIPAA laws.Nico, her best friend, who's tall, funny, and looks at her like she's the special on the menu.And an underground tomato operation that might just be the weirdest self-help journey of her life.As Lucy juggles heartbreak, heists, and hormone-fueled flirtation, she learns that starting over-like a good sauce-takes time, patience, and just the right amount of heat.

Hitting the Sauce is a hilarious, big-hearted romp about love, resilience, and the fine art of stirring the pot.

Best served with red wine, eggplant Parmesan, and friends who make trouble worth surviving.
