Publisher Description

New York Times best-selling author Robyn Carr is beloved for her charming, romantic fiction. In this touching work, four women-all writers-come together after a painful loss. Recently deceased Gabby Marshall leaves behind a letter asking her friends to complete her unfinished manuscript. Taking vacations from their own lives, the ladies settle at Gabby's home and get to work. "Carr offers a well-written, warm-hearted story and a genuinely fun read." -Publishers Weekly

"Warning spoiler! With a main character dieing on her birthday to start the book I wasn't sure I would like this book. As with other Carr books however I warmed up to almost every character. I really enjoyed it to the end."
