Publisher's summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of the Chesapeake Diaries series comes an “irresistible” (Publishers Weekly) novel Hudson Sisters series, which follows a trio of reluctant sisters who set out to fulfill their father’s dying wish and discover themselves in the process.

California girl Allie Hudson Monroe can’t wait for the day when the renovations on the Sugarhouse Theater are complete so she can finally collect the inheritance from her father and move on with her life. After all, her life and her 14-year-old daughter are in Los Angeles.

But Allie’s divorce left her teetering on the edge of bankruptcy, so to keep up on payments for her house and her daughter’s private-school tuition, Allie packed up and flew out east. But fate has a curveball or two to toss in her direction.

She hadn’t anticipated how her life would change after reuniting with her estranged sister, Des, or meeting her previously unknown half-sister, Cara. And she’d certainly never expected to find small-town living charming. But the biggest surprise was that her long-forgotten artistry would save the day when the theater’s renovation fund dried up.

With opening day upon the sisters, Allie’s free to go. But for the first time in her life, she feels like the woman she was always meant to be. Will she return to the West Coast and resume her previous life, or will the love of “this amazing, endearing family of women” (Robyn Carr, number-one New York Times best-selling author) be enough to draw her back to the place where the Hudson roots grow so deep?

A Wonderful Story

This is written so well that it seemed it was a real story about real people. I have been invested in the main characters (narrated nicely) since the first book in the series.

Very entertaining

This was a really good third book in this series. Joy Osmanski narrated it perfectly, her voices for the characters just so added to the story. I hope we get another in this series or at the very least a novella. Loved how the story worked out. Loved Allie and Nicky and Barney is such a wise old lady.

Strange but ok

I'm not quite understanding the rave reviews I've read on this series. I loved previous books by MS. And I read all 3 of the Sisters books (this is the 3rd). The plot is charming, and I even like all of the final resolutions. But the romances all seemed kind of blah and not really even fleshed out (no pun intended). Allie and Nick, her daughter, are the best characters. Allie has the most growth. I was proud of her. Frankly, I thought her sisters were mean to her. I'm glad I read them. But these are not MS's best.
