Francesca had it all. She had a very handsome hubby, a great loft apartment, and a best selling novel.
Go forward 3 years, add 60 pounds and a huge case of writer’s block. Oh yes, and the handsome husband leaving. Francesca and her dog are now flying solo with no income. What to do!
After wallowing in self pity for a while, Francesca finally puts an ad in the paper and finds herself hired as a ghost writer to a lovely retirement home lady, Chicky, who wants to tell the story of her vaudevillian parents lives.
This is a great, fast read that will give a surprise twist at the end regarding why Chicky and Francesca should remain in each other’s lives, whether or not the book they’re writing becomes a seller or not. Very interesting characters weave in and out of the story and their lives.
