Rose and the Singing Bagels is the story of how Rose Marino joined Los Bagels, fell in love, out-smarted a tail, helped her little sister Maggie, played matchmaker more than once, taught her students, tended to Eden, and baked bagels, not necessarily in that order. This is a light, sweet, clean contemporary romance with lots of heart, more than a bit of which comes from the hyphenated Italians in this tale.
