Life sometimes needs a reboot and some introspection. It just gets so darn complicated. And if one doesn’t step back and trim away some of the chaos it can bury you. When you start THE SOMETHING BORROWED SISTERS by Shirley Jump it is a fairy tale beginning with a pink fluffy wedding and a deeply loving couple joining their two lives. Combining two families. The stuff memories are made of. And then again sometimes the bumps on the road let us lose sight of that love and devotion. You know the pink fluff gets ratty. FYI THE SOMETHING BORROWED SISTERS is book number three in the Harbor Cover Series by Shirley Jump. It stands alone.
Be prepared to fall in love with Grandma Eleanor who writes an advice column under the pseudonym of Dear Amelia. It’s no secret for us but the community at large has no idea. Her granddaughters had only found out a year ago. And now Eleanor has an idea. You have to watch out for this powerhouse grandma who will do anything to make sure her granddaughters Margaret, Emma and Gabby are happy and well-loved.
Margaret took the role of big sister very seriously. Since she was nine and their mother died she had serendipitously eyed everything to do with her little sisters. Made sure they were okay and then became Margaret. That’s what her sisters and her husband Mike would say when Margaret shoved her feelings aside and handled something. It was tough being Margaret. Her sisters and her husband had shorter names for when she would sort of let her hair down, relax and enjoy the moment. Too few moments.
In this heartwarming story, all three Monroe sisters have said “I do,” but when the eldest sister’s marriage hits a rough patch, it takes the love of her family to see her through—perfect for fans of Jill Shalvis and Jenny Hale!
Ever since their mother passed, Margaret Monroe has been the rock for her two younger sisters, serving as a role model in life and in love. But Margaret is keeping a painful secret from her normally tight-knit family. Her sisters would be there for her if she reached out for help, but with her family concerned about their grandmother’s health crisis, Margaret doesn’t want to add to their worry. She’d like to be able to confide in her husband instead, but they have drifted apart, and she has no idea how they can find their way back to one another. Thankfully, her two sisters are now in happy marriages, and Margaret wants to make her own relationship last a lifetime too. But will she lose everyone she holds dear once she tells them the truth?
