By Lauraine Snelling
The sprawling lake home Lynn Lundberg built with her husband has been an epicenter of joyful family life, from summer holidays spent around the water, to cookies baked in the kitchen with grandchildren in the fall. But since her husband’s sudden passing two years ago, Lynn has been lost in the grief and solitude she feels without him at home. She doesn’t want to sell the big family place, but she can’t exist there on her own much longer. After hearing of a new way of living–where single women share responsibilities as housemates–Lynn thinks she’s found the answer to her prayers. Soon she meets two ladies with whom she could begin this journey. But coming from such differing circumstances, will the new challenges they face undo their plans? Or will they begin a friendship to see them through the years to come in this Someday Home.
ISLAND BREEZES
This novel brings together three lost and lonely women and turns them into a family.
Lynn is a widow with a home that’s too big for her, but she doesn’t want to give it up.
Angela is a real estate agent whose husband found greener pastures. She wants to leave bad memories behind.
Judith gave up her hopes and dreams as a young woman to care for her parents. Her father put her through the wringer and didn’t even have the decency to leave her a home or money. The only way she can stay in her home is if she becomes a live in caretaker for the living history museum her father created.
Three very different women who have to start life over. This new living arrangement they have will have them struggling with their new coalition. Will it work? The title says it will.
