Four Takeaways and a Funeral

Bellydance and Beyond, Book 3

Mavis and Lumpy are getting married. It is to be a small affair with a hot and spicy theme, a few close friends, and a celebrant on Skype.

"We want no fuss," said Mavis. "Just lots of food, great photos, and belly-dancing."

However...Mavis’s idea of hot and spicy is not Lumpy’s, and Lumpy’s idea of great photos is definitely not Mavis’. Mavis and Lumpy find there is more to getting married than organizing the dips. As their relationship spirals out of control, Mavis loses her mother and must come to terms with a past she would rather forget.

With a funeral befitting a sitcom, sibling rivalry on a par with a Shakespearean tragedy, and a dying mother's impossible wish, Mavis and Lumpy's relationship crumbles like a burnt chapati.

It is up to Nefertiti to make “things” right - so she thinks.
