Romance
A debut novel about luck and love, and winning a
sweepstakes, with a cast of characters who will charm
readers from the very first page The HomeSweetHome Network has just announced this year's
lucky winner of a brand-new, fully loaded dream home: Janine
Brown of Cedar Falls, Iowa. For Janine "Janey" Brown, hearing her name called on the TV
has the hallmarks of one of her aunt Midge's harebrained
plans designed to bring Janey into a world outside the one
she once shared with her fiancé. Janey, however, is
reluctant to give up the safety and sanctity she finds in
her tiny kitchen, submerging her anxiety and grief in the
pursuit of the perfect pot-au-feu. Meanwhile, across town, Janine "Nean" Brown just knows that
this house is her destiny. Good fortune took its sweet time
showing up in her life, but better late than never. And now
that it's here, the house promises an escape from the latest
in her revolving door of crappy jobs and drunk boyfriends.
This house will turn her into someone the world sees,
instead of the bedraggled girl who others look past without
a thought. Both Janine Browns head for Christmas Cove, Maine, to claim
the prize they both rightfully think is theirs. When their
lives and personalities intersect, however, they discover
that more than just a million-dollar dream home awaits them
at the water's edge. These three women (oh yes, Aunt Midge
comes along for the ride!) arrive at their newfound mansion
only to uncover what exactly it means to truly be "home." Filled with wit and charm, The Good Luck Girls of Shipwreck
Lane is Kelly Harms's enchanting and heartfelt debut--a
testament to the many, many ways love finds us, the power of
a home-cooked meal, and just what it means to be lucky.
