Oh this was a fun book to read! Phoebe's Mom--who kind of reminds me of my Mom--drives her crazy--always pushing--never seems quite satisfied with what Phoebe has accomplished. Even after her Mom dies--she is still haunting Phoebe (my Mom has threatened me that that is exactly what she will be doing!)--
Meanwhile Phoebe is the cook at a Home for Ladies and has a deathly crush on the, I guess you could call him, handyman--Nick. As in real life nothing goes as one would wish--for either Phoebe or her manager and best friend.
Of course the owner decided that Men should be allowed to come and live at the Home as well--our resident Ladies are not thrilled as you can well imagine ---what they do will make you laugh.
As in all Lilly Bartlett's (aka Michele Gorman) books--alls well that ends well--it's just getting there that causes a whole lot of laughs!!
About the Book: (from Amazon)
Meet Phoebe, who’s 28, and Laney, Dot and Maggie, who are 68, 78, and none of your business. Together they'll prove that age doesn’t matter when it comes to friendship, belonging and an unquenchable zest for life.
Laugh-out-loud uplifting chick lit about the ties of community, the strength of love and how nobody is truly ordinary.
When Framlingham’s famously all-female senior living home goes co-ed, a war between the sexes is declared.
Stuck in the middle, chef Phoebe Stockton is desperate to help her friends plot to keep the community that means so much to them. It’s become her life raft, too. She finds comfort in her beloved career that might finally make her parents proud. But Phoebe’s darling Nick is lining up on the other side of the battle, and their relationship is suffering collateral damage.
The stakes couldn’t be higher. If the home’s owner can’t improve business by moving the men in, he’ll have to close down Friendship House.
The women aren’t about to let that happen.
