Produktbeschreibung
New York Times bestseller follows up her Morrow debut with a hilarious and touching story of a woman and her chosen family.
Her sleazy husband left her for a lingerie model who's barely more than a teenager, and her kids are busy with their own lives. But before Miriam Elizabeth Swanson can work herself up into a true snit about it all, her newest tenant, Liz, arrives from Birmingham with plenty of troubles of her own. And then Miriam meets a man named Harrison, who makes her laugh, makes her cry, and makes her feel like a brand-new woman.

It's almost too much for one Manhattan quasi-socialite to handle-so Miriam's escaping to the enchanted and mysterious land of Sullivans Island, deep in the low country of South Carolina, a place where she can finally get her head on straight-and figure out that it's not pride that's going to keep her warm at night . . .
Autorenporträt
Frank, Dorothea Benton

Dorothea "Dottie" Benton Frank was the bestselling author of twenty novels. She and her daughter, Victoria Benton Frank, wrote this story together after Victoria's son, Teddy, was born. Over many mugs of coffee, they decided to tell a scrumptious tale that reflected their love for unique kids, awesome friends, and big appetites for good food. Victoria now resides in the Low Country of South Carolina, her mother's beloved hometown, with her husband and two children and one huge dog. She misses her mother every moment but is absolutely thrilled to bring this treasure they created together to the laps of many readers and their children and grandchildren. She hopes it will remind you to be yourself, have the courage to try new things, and always remember to pack a little extra to share with friends.
