Comfort Food
Now in paperback from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Friday Night Knitting Club

Shortly before turning 50, TV cooking show personality Augusta “Gus” Simpson discovers that the network wants to boost her ratings by teaming her with a beautiful, young new co-host. But Gus isn’t going without a fight—whether it’s off-set with her two demanding daughters, on-camera with the ambitious new diva herself, or after-hours with Oliver, the new culinary producer who’s raising Gus’s temperature beyond the comfort zone. Now, in pursuit of higher ratings and culinary delights, Gus might be able to rejuvenate more than just her career.

PRAISE FOR THE FRIDAY NIGHT KNITTING CLUB

“The book’s great—worth reading now.”
--Glamour

“If you are looking for an inviting group of gals to spend a few winter evenings with, pull up your afghan (you knitted it yourself, right?) and snuggle in with The Friday Night Knitting Club. Kate Jacobs’ breezy first novel reads like Steel Magnolias set in Manhattan. . . . Club makes you yearn for yarn, even if you’re not a knitter.” --Publishers Weekly

“Without resorting to stereotypical personalities or over-the-top plot twists . . . Jacobs does something unexpected—she changes things up, and [Club] goes from being a good book to being a really great story.” --Marie Claire
