SUNSET BRIDGE

Women's Fiction Contemporary

Tracy Deloche owns five broken down cottages in the Florida Keys called Happiness Keys following her disastrous marriage. Four are rented to unique women who have formed a close kinship with one another and meet once a week, alternating homes, for talk and dinner. Wanda Gray, the pie maker, her daughter Maggie, an ex-cop, Janya & Rishi Kapur, Alice and her granddaughter, Olivia, are steadfast support for each other.

Tracy must deal with an unexpected pregnancy, Janya is left unexpectedly with a friends two tiny children, Wanda receives a proposal for her pie business, Maggie deals with heartbreak after feeling betrayed by her lover, and Alice strives to keep up with an active preteen. While dealing with their individual missions, their lives are disrupted with the threat of murder complicated by a massive hurricane that collapses the bridge to the island. The women survive only with the close support of each other. The hurricane dwarfs each of their problems and brings to light what is truly important in their lives with the secrets it unleashes.

SUNSET BRIDGE is another beautiful story in the Happiness Key novels. This is a wonderful tale of the closeness and support of true friends. The characters, even with their own problems, find the time to be there in support of their friends. This is another beautiful page turner that you have to read from cover to cover in one sitting. I was easily drawn into their lives and felt their sorrow, joy and love. This is definitely a "do not miss" story. Emilie Richards has an astounding way of placing you inside her characters and keeps you there to the end.

SUMMARY

Former socialite Tracy Deloche has nothing to her name but five ramshackle beach cottages and the unlikely friendships she's formed with her tenants. Wanda, wise waitress turned popular pie-shop owner. Janya, the young Indian wife whose arranged marriage surprises her every day. Alice, a widow raising her complex tween-age granddaughter. And Maggie, Wanda's daughter, a former Miami cop with a love life as complicated as Tracy's own. The new man in Tracy's life hasn't mentioned love or commitmentโ€” and Tracy has just discovered she's pregnant. Janya longs to be a motherโ€”and suddenly has two young siblings in her care. Maggie helps out at Wanda's Wonderful Piesโ€ฆbut is the kitchen big enough for both Gray women? And Alice may lose her beloved granddaughter to someone no one expectedโ€ฆ. As a tropical storm brews, the wind carries surprises and secrets over the bridge to Happiness Key. Now, more than ever, five friends will discover just how much they need one another.
