Kate Kavanagh is happy raising her daughter and focusing on work, but
when the girl moves to New York for a fantastic job and ends up moving in with
her philandering father, things get complicated.
Her best friend, Madeline Stein, has been a career girl all her life. As
a single mom, her job defines her, so when she loses it, Maddy needs to find
something or someone else to make her forties fun.
Portia Kavanagh hits New York with a bang, but she’s so hungry for
adventure she bites off more of the Big Apple than planned. Portia retreats to
what she thinks is the sanctuary of her father’s home and soon discovers she’s
not the only one in the family with an overactive appetite.
Kate and Maddy find themselves leaving their lovely hometown of Lincoln, outside
Boston, for the fertile and romantic hills of Tuscany. However, blue skies, rich
wine, and charming Italians bring the women a whole new world that they have to
maneuver with the grace and style of a Lincoln Lady. Portia’s high-octane
life in Manhattan comes at a price, too. Out of the millions of men she could
have, she chooses the only one she’s meant to avoid. Her quandary: Has she made
a mistake of epic proportions or found the one in a million?
This is a story of three fantastic women on a journey of self-discovery. With
more ups and downs than a Florentine fairground, the ladies survive love, loss,
and fresh pasta by laughing at life and using a doggie bag. There are lots of
thrills and spills along the way, but in the end it’s all about friendship,
attitude, and walking off that fabulous food. Come on an adventure and enjoy the
ride with the lovely Lincoln Ladies.

This sounds like a great story, and I love the cover!! As for your other contest, I'm sorry that I can't enter it. I don't have a Pinterest account, for starters. My Mother has been deceased for 11 years, and I don't know where to even find a picture of the 2 of us. I only keep her photo out. God didn't bless me with children, due to health issues, so that part is out, too!! My server doesn't work well with Rafflecopter as well, so there's my 3rd strike!! Going back to the book, I don't know how you found time to write such an intriguing book, after reading that you have 5 children of your own, from your bio, but from all the kudos, you've done a great job nonetheless!! Congratulations on your book!! (Peggy Roberson 8:15am September 5, 2014)
