Heather Sitterly grew up on Blackberry Island. She owns her own marketing business and has a core group of friends. Heather has also broken up with the person she thought was the love of her life. Heather's friend Tori Rocha works for her best friend she’s known since college. She’s always picking the wrong men and isn't looking for a relationship after her most recent disastrous date. Daphne Brown is a lawyer and has just made partner. Her life is extra busy with stepchildren and work but she finds time for her two best friends, even though her marriage is in trouble. These three women and their connection to the Brown brothers, Parker, Grant, and Brody, will have them rethinking their lives.

THE HAPPINESS PLAN by Susan Mallery returns to the Blackberry Island series with another delightful and thoughtful story. Heather’s upbringing affects her current relationships with people. She believes that if she gets too close to anyone, she will be like her mother. Love isn't something she thinks she wants. Along with her two best friends Tori and Daphne, they help each other through their relationship with the men in their lives.

THE HAPPINESS PLAN follows three women trying to find happiness while dealing with work, family, and the men in their lives. They’ll realize what they’ve lost both personally and physically, and find a new family. An old friendship becomes more, a marriage in trouble may not be fixed, and someone will realize what was lost after a breakup. Readers will be pulled into the lives of these three women as they find the happily ever afters they deserve.

SUMMARY

Three women search for joy in #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Mallery’s new novel of hope, heartache, and the power of friendship.

Heather is happy . . . ish. She has a successful business, a cute but contemptuous cat, and best friends Daphne and Tori who know where she’s broken and love her anyway. So why does she feel crushed when her ex gets serious about someone new? No problem, she has a plan. More connections will hold her together while her world falls apart, so she finally reaches out to the stranger who might be her dad.

Daphne isn’t having an emotional affair, despite what her husband believes. He started the rift in their marriage when he said they weren’t ready for a baby. They used to be the closest couple she knew. Can they find their way back to one another before it’s too late?

When Tori forms an inconvenient crush on Daphne’s brother-in-law, she suppresses her feelings. Until her apartment floods, and she moves in with the dog-loving doctor. If things go wrong, she could lose her friends. . . but if they go right, she could lose her heart.
