Synopsis
This is another heart-warming tale of friendship from the bestselling author of "Thursdays at Eight". When times are tough, confiding in friends can change your life. Cancer survivor Lydia's business is thriving but her dream-man's ex is threatening their relationship...Retired, self-contained Elise has lost everything and lives with her daughter, but still has disturbingly strong feelings for her gambling ex-husband. Nervous Bethanne is an unwilling divorcee whose husband left her and their children for a younger woman. She urgently needs a job, but has she the confidence to find one? Lonely teenager, Courtney, feels abandoned too. Grieving over her mother's death, she has put on weight and dreads starting a new school. This uplifting, heart-warming story proves that however bleak the future may look, the importance of friendship should never be underestimated.
Review
Another good and easy read from Ms Macomber, this time following up on the knitting group first encountered met in the Shop on Blossom Street plus some new characters not as happy as they could be.
I like the mix of characters, rich (handy for sorting out some problems) and poor, old and young, and the upbeat messages. One should always have some light reading like this - heart warming, non-threatening, well written - to hand for those grey days when a little cheer is needed.
