Publisher's summary

They are the Season sisters, bound by blood, driven apart by a tragedy. Now they are about to embark on a bittersweet journey into the unknown — an odyssey of promise and forgiveness, of loss and rediscovery.

Jillian, Beatrice and Rose have gathered for the funeral of their younger sister, Meredith. Her death, and the legacy she leaves them, will trigger a cross-country journey in search of a stranger with the power to mend their shattered lives. As the emotions of the past reverberate into the present, Jillian, Beatrice, and Rose search for the girls they once were, in hopes of finding what they really lost: the women they were meant to be.

Liked the story, not the character voices.

I still like Mary Alice Monroe's thoughtful writing and the topic of sisterhood is quite a gem. Not sure if the narration was a good fit for this one. It seemed to make some of the characters less believable. Perhaps I would have found this in reading it myself, but the story is worth the read.

The Four Seasons

I really enjoyed this book, it moved along quickly and I didn't want to stop listening. Kinda reminded me of my 3 sisters and I.

Best So Far

This is the best Mary Alice Monroe I have read so far. Most have been a light tip-toe through the tulips but not this one. She really gets deep in to some great characters. The death of one sister just totally tips the apple cart for the other three.Each one for a different reason and following these sisters and their reason was a great treat. This will be one of 'those' books that I will listen to more than once!

Great story!

I normally read nonfiction but was really drawn in by this story. I can see this being a movie.
