Review
"Absolutely loved this book. It was like a page out of my life, older kids, aging parents. Heartfelt, wonderful read. Can't wait for the next book."
"I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish this book because I didn't want to put it down. I wanted to climb inside and live in Bluebird Bay with these characters."
"LOVE, LOVE LOVE!!!! This book is an incredible read. I love to read about strong woman and this book if full of them. Celia comes home from a rare me weekend to find her husband left. In the events afterward she finds herself again. She has 2 sisters and 2 kids who help her along the way. This book hits all the feels, I felt all her emotions right along with her. It is a must read!!"
"I want more books like this one, books that have a gorgeous spark to them and more than a dash of hope and lots of icing on top of the cupcake..."
