Summary
A resilient woman embarks upon an unforgettable journey of adventure, self-discovery, and renewal. Betta Nolan moves to a small town after the death of her husband to try to begin anew. Pursuing a dream of a different kind of life, she is determined to find pleasure in her simple daily routines. Among those who help her in both expected and unexpected ways are the ten-year-old boy next door, three wild women friends from her college days, a twenty-year-old who is struggling to find his place in the world, and a handsome man who is ready for love. Betta acknowledges the solace found in ordinary things: a warm bath, good food, the beauty of nature, music, friends, and art. Berg writes with humor and a big heart about resilience, loneliness, love, and hope
