SynopsisThe national bestselling author of The Sister Season shares a novel of four ordinary women at one extraordinary crossroads.... Karen, Melinda, and Joanna have never met until the morning they witness an accident outside a local diner--and rush to help. As a single mom whose sweet-faced boy has become a misguided young man, Karen immediately sets aside her own concerns and moves into action. Emergency first responder Melinda also calmly steps up to the plate, as she does every day; no one would ever suspect the insecurity that threatens her marriage to the man she loves. And blond, beautiful, bohemian Joanna is hiding--from her friends, her family, and, most important, herself. Yet she's first on the scene. The accident leaves another, mother to be, Maddie, crushed by grief. But rather than retreat, Karen, Melinda, and Joanna open their arms and hearts. During the next nine months they'll return to the diner over and over. They'll come to find Maddie. They'll end up finding themselves--learning what it means to be a mother, lover, wife, and friend. By reaching out and holding on, these four women will unite to show us life can be transformed at the most surprising moments., Karen, Melinda and Joanna have never met, but every morning they get their coffee at the Tea Rose Diner. Karen stops in on her way to her long term office job, wondering how her sweet-faced boy turned into a misguided young man. Paramedic Melinda fuels up for her days helping others, after nights spent worrying her fear of having children could drive her husband away. And Joanna, who hides from her family and friends. One day the three meet in a shocking event involving a young woman named Maddie. Over the next months they return to meet each other over and over.
