Ladies of Covington Series by Joan Medlicott
Ladies of Covington Send Their Love
Cautious Grace Singleton, uncertain of her place in an intimidating world. Outspoken Hannah Parrish, harboring a private fear that may change her life. Fragile Amelia Declose, shattered by devastating grief. Circumstance has brought these disparate women of "a certain age" to a Pennsylvania boardinghouse where three square meals and a sagging bed is the most any of them can look forward to.
But friendship takes them on a startling journey to a rundown North Carolina farmhouse where the unexpected suddenly seems not only welcome, but delightfully promising. And with nothing more than a bit of adventure in mind, each woman will be surprised to find that the years they've reclaimed from the shadow of twilight will offer something far more rare: confidence, competence, and even another chance at love...
A very nice book of friendship and finding new purpose in life. Told from the perspective of all three ladies who are also widows we experience their loss and happiness and finding their inner strength. Each has experienced loss of their own and have to learn to trust one another to help them through it. I will say that I was getting tired of Amelia who had more brushes with death and would lose control more than all the others. It was hard to read it from her perspective as I felt the least sympathic for her. But this won't stop me from wanting to read another book in the series.
