All the single ladies

In this charming, evocative, soul-touching novel, Dorothea Benton Frank once again takes us deep into the heart of the magical Lowcountry where three amazing middle aged women are bonded by another amazing woman's death. Through their shared loss they forge a deep friendship, asking critical questions. Who was their friend and what did her life mean? Are they living the lives they imagined for themselves? Will they ever be able to afford to retire? How will they maximize their happiness? Security? Health? And ultimately, their own legacies?

Braving the South Carolina Low Country summer heat is hard enough, but Lisa, who works at a nursing home, has bigger problems-her failed yoga business all but bankrupted her and her adult daughter isn't speaking to her. Things start looking up when Lisa makes a couple of new friends, Suzanne and Carrie, who, like her, have had more than a few bumps on the road to true love, are currently single, and are closer in age to AARP members than to sorority girls. Lisa cared for their friend Kathy at the end of her life and then got involved in helping to solve the mystery Kathy left behind. When Lisa encounters one of Kathy's old flames, the instant attraction is mutual and signals good things to come. Could all this positive energy help her salvage her relationship with her daughter and figure out what Kathy was hiding? Verdict This story of new friendship and second chances coming in middle age will delight readers, although they may need a sweet tea because the Low Country heat is so palpable. Frank's latest (after The Hurricane Sisters) is for readers who enjoy women's fiction by Southern writers like Mary Alice Monroe and Mary Kay Andrews.-Karen Core, Detroit P.L. © Copyright 2015.
