A delightful romp that will have you laughing and crying before you get to the end. You are going to care tremendously about Miriam and wish there were several additional chapters. I loved it!

This was one of the best yet from Frank and her "low country" tales. A story about a middle aged divorcee with two grown estranged children who lives in NYC but misses her mother and her roots - both in SC - Sullivan's Island. It made me laugh and cry...very moving story with rich characters that evolved and grew, just like in real life.

Dorothea Benton Frank has a way of making you feel like you are right in the heart of the lowcountry. This isn't my favorite book of hers, but still brings alive the beauty and magic of the lowcountry.
