Women's Fiction
A Southern novel of family and antiques from the bestselling
author of the beloved Saving CeeCee Honeycutt Beth Hoffman’s bestselling debut, Saving CeeCee Honeycutt,
won admirers and acclaim with its heartwarming story and
cast of unforgettable characters. Now her unique flair for
evocative settings and richly drawn Southern personalities
shines in her compelling new novel, Looking for Me. Teddi Overman found her life’s passion for furniture in a
broken-down chair left on the side of the road in rural
Kentucky. She learns to turn other people’s castoffs into
beautifully restored antiques, and eventually finds a way to
open her own shop in Charleston. There, Teddi builds a life
for herself as unexpected and quirky as the customers who
visit her shop. Though Teddi is surrounded by remarkable
friends and finds love in the most surprising way, nothing
can alleviate the haunting uncertainty she’s felt in the
years since her brother Josh’s mysterious disappearance.
When signs emerge that Josh might still be alive, Teddi is
drawn home to Kentucky. It’s a journey that could help her
come to terms with her shattered family—and to find herself
at last. But first she must decide what to let go of and
what to keep. Looking for Me brilliantly melds together themes of family,
hope, loss, and a mature once-in-a-lifetime kind of love.
The result is a tremendously moving story that is destined
to make bestselling author Beth Hoffman a novelist to whom
readers will return again and again as they have with
Adriana Trigiani, Fannie Flagg, and Joshilyn Jackson.
