Waltzing at the Piggly Wiggly - by Robert Dalby (Paperback)

About the Book

In a clever and funny debut novel reminiscent of Ann Rosss "Miss Julia" books, Dalby presents an irresistible Southern charmer that centers around small-town gossip, second-chance romance, strange weather, and ballroom dancing in the most unlikely places.

Book Synopsis

Two-Step right up to "a delightful story of new loves, old loves and reclaimed love."*

The Piggly Wiggly has been the hub of the community of Second Creek, Mississippi, but now it may be forced to shut down. Determined to keep her favorite market open, Laurie Lepanto enlists the help of her fellow "Nitwitts." They are influential widows who love to socialize-and remain true to their beloved store. With the help of handsome widower and former ballroom dancer Powell Hampton, they have the ladies of Second Creek foxtrotting back into the market. It's become the town's most festive event: waltzing at the Piggly Wiggly (while someone else takes care of the shopping). But it's Laurie who's thrown for a whirl when the dancing sparks an unpredictable romance. It may be the best deal she's ever gotten at the Piggly Wiggly.
