Well written and could not put it down. Interesting story that could translate to the movie screen very well.
This was a great story. I read it years ago and it stayed with me. Maybe I could relate, but the storytelling is perfect.
Great book!
Although it took me a bit to get into this book, I enjoyed it thoroughly. The death of their friend becomes a catalyst for four women to take a good look at their lives and find their own happy ending. Unexpected turns allowed!
It was a great read! Love the characters. It ended too soon!
I read this book a long time ago but still have fond memories of it. Enjoyed it thoroughtly.
A different approach to a book. Characters woven through house.
I cannot get into this book…I have put it down, come back and tried and tried again and it is just not working for me. Not sure what is missing as I love Virgin River series. The book seems rushed and is lacking that one thing that pulls you in.
This is one of the best books I have read in a long time. Good story line. Good writing. Loved the characters.
Could not put down! Fascinating characters that are all writers themselves that the reader gets to explore how they think and work their craft plus navigate the turbulent waters of life after the death of one of their own. Many in this close knit group have known each other for years but they really don’t know as much as they thought they did …
This was a great book. I loved how the women came together and helped each other. That is friendship. Women friends, true friends, are always there when you need them.
Unique storyline, fantastic characters
I love her books!
Really enjoyed the characters. Friends coming together to help and support each other in times of trouble
I enjoyed this book and found that it moved very quickly. Robyn Carr makes her characters come alive and is always entertaining!
I could not put this book down. It delt with issues that most women will experience at least once in their lifetime. It’s good to know that you are not alone. I highly recommend this book. Men may find it interesting and helpful as well.
Four very different women but they all need each other! Great story of making your life what you want it!
Loved it
I loved the characters and the interactions
Great
