This class has Kim, a somewhat klutz, who moves from NC to FL by following a boyfriend. However the boyfriend dumps her and she is stranded in FL with no friends. She sees this as a chance to make new friends, never knowing a love interest was in the bargain also. There is also Jennifer, a very pregnant and struggling financially young lady whose husband has lost his job; Erika, a teen in a wheelchair paralyzed from a diving accident; Noreen, a widow looking for something to do; Phyllis/Mike who see what needs to be done to repair their marriage, and BJ, an older gentleman dying of cancer has not told anyone, wanting to live out the best he can with whatever time is left.
As always there are twists and turns, relationships made, connections they never would have guessed, and everything happens quickly in the last meeting.
The second book in the series is here and I know I read the first one but I can't find it back through my lists. These books are good if you like lighter fare, a fair amount of detail, following relationships, and seeing how God can use everyday situations in ways you may never think!
Retired Amish newlyweds Emma and Lamar Miller have decided to buy a winter place in Sarasota, Florida. But it wouldn’t feel like home if Emma didn’t take her quilting materials and offer classes. Wounded and hurting people have a knack for finding their way to her classes for some quilting therapy: Jennifer, a pregnant new mom; Mike, a charter boat owner; Erika, a wheelchair-bound teen; Kim, a waitress; Noreen, a newly-retired widow; and BJ, an artist facing illness. And when Jan, visits from Indiana, romance is also added to the class discussions. (picture and description from amazon.)
Now I think after several romantic/family books it's time for some lawyer/police/crime/murder/missing persons stuff!! Bring on the new Robert Whitlow!!
Happy Reading!!
O:)
