About This Book

"The three widowed sixty-something women who lend 'golden girl' power to Medlicott's episodic debut would be very much at home in Jan Karon's Mitford." —Publishers Weekly

Cautious Grace Singleton, uncertain of her place in an intimidating world. Outspoken Hannah Parrish, harboring private fear that may change her life. Fragile Ameila Declose, shattered by devastating grief. Circumstance has brought these disparate women of "a certain age" to a Pennsylvania boardinghouse where three square meals and a sagging bed is the most any of them can look forward to. But friendship will take them on a starting journey to a rundown North Carolina farmhouse where the unexpected suddenly seems not only welcome, but delightfully promising. And with nothing more than a bit of adventure in mind, each woman will be surprised to find that the years they've reclaimed from the shadow of twilight will offer something far more rare: confidence, competence, and even another chance at love . . .

"A must-read for women of all ages." —The Tampa Tribune

"Come sit on the porch for a while with three unforgettable women . . . listen to their stories, smile at their triumphs, wonder at their friendship." —Rosemary Rogers, New York Times–bestselling author

"Readers will enjoy the ride." —Library Journal

"A genuinely inspiring tale—perfect for the 'gentle read' crowd." —Booklist
