  • One Summer Brought Four Very Different Women Together

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    Sandra Pennington is feeling lonely. She has lived alone since the death of her husband five years ago. However, this year, she is also feeling the loss of her best friend (though not to death but to dementia). Her children have no plans to visit her over the summer, and she is downright lonely.

    So, she does what any sensible woman would do, right? She rents out her remaining bedrooms and operates a bed-and-breakfast over the summer.

    Though her children aren’t sure, she decides to go through with it and invites three women into her home.

    Mary is a lawyer who recently retired and isn’t sure what her next step is. However, a vacation in Maine might just give her the clarity that she needs.

    High school teacher Amanda decides to leave her long-time boyfriend at home and take some time to figure out what she wants in life.

    Patty, a last-minute add-in, is determined to have a good time, no matter how down on her luck she is.

    These three women start spending one dinner a week together, but quickly realize they need friendship to help them discover what their futures hold.

    If you are looking for a book about happy endings, finding yourselves, and spending time with good friends, this book will be perfect for you!

  • Five College Friends Stay Close Years Later

    Book Cover off of Amazon Website

    In All the Right Mistakes by Laura Jamison, five college friends approach their fortieth birthday, having traveled very different paths. Elizabeth and Sara are lawyers, Martha is a doctor, and Carmen is a wealthy stay-at-home mom. The most successful, Heather, is a famous tech executive.

    Then, Heather writes an advice novel, basically talking about all the “mistakes” that her college friends made, like opting out, giving half effort, and more. It becomes extremely popular, though, which hurts her friends more than anything. In fact, it may just tear them apart. None of them feels they can forgive Heather. When her life starts to fall apart, she doesn’t have her friends to fall back on.

    This makes the group realize that friendship is worth more than anything. They need each other to get through the ups and downs of life. It just makes life so much better to have someone you can count on!
