This was absolutely one of the best books I have ever read. I passed this on to all of my friends and they all loved it as well. The book is about a group of women - totally different in personality, coming from different worlds and from different places in life. This is how they all came together and became true friends. Anyone who has ever had a friend like this - or wished that they did - will love this book as much as I did.

One of the best "women" stories I have read in a while, and I recommend to anyone who likes to read about people living life and learning how to help each other and live together in friendship.

Great book. I really loved it. It's a fabulous story about four women who come together under unusual circumstances whose friendship and commitment to each other is transforming....wonderful book.
I love Joann Mapson. She isn't a well known author, but is a favorite of the well-known Jodi Picoult. Her writing can be hilarious at times and her characters are so real that you think about them long after the book is over. I still remember Chloe from Hank and Chloe by Mapson. This is a great book in a Series of Bad Girl Creek novels. Give it a try - you might be surprised.
What a wonderful book for anyone who is questioning the decisions they have made in their life. Anything is possible!!
Oh my goodness, I had to order the rest of the books. I have to know what happens to these folks! Really loved my time with them.
Phoebe DeThomas has lived life as spectator, confined to a wheelchair, in awe of her beloved Aunt Sadie, and overshadowed by her financial wizard brother, James. But when Sadie dies, leaving Phoebe a flower farm, the world opens up to her in ways she could never have imagined. Taking in three roommates to help get the farm running, she finds herself, for the first time in her life, part of a close circle of women friends. Each displaced from her home, these four women form an invaluable bond as they learn how friendship and purpose can transform even the most compromised of women.
