Summary: Armed with the wisdom of Carl Jung, and psychic intuition, California family therapist Sarah Doucette Jean-Louis spends a year looking for love, counseling a stalker and surviving a plot to kill her. Sarah has Louisiana Creole roots. She can hold her liquor and make a mean gumbo. She also has an aunt who talks to the dead and a mother who wants her married. In Myra Jolivet‘s mystery “Pushed Times, Chewing Pepper” Sarah’s life changes during a four-day reunion in Louisiana with her judgmental family, including her nemesis Cousin Stacy. It was the last place she expected to meet a man, but Michael’s perfect teeth and Armani-wearing buff-ness were irresistible. He was also visiting from the west coast — and even though Sarah’s Aunt Cat warns her that Michael is trouble, she refuses to listen and within months she and Michael are engaged.
