Book 1

As Young as We Feel

Published 1 March 2010
"Once upon a time in a little town on the Oregon coast lived four Lindas--all in the same first-grade classroom. So they decided to go by their middle names. And form a club. And be friends forever. But that was forty-seven years and four very different lives ago. Now a class reunion has brought them all together in their old hometown--at a crossroads in their lives. Janie is a high-powered lawyer with a load of grief. Abby is a lonely housewife in a beautiful oceanfront empty nest. Marley is trying to recapture the artistic free spirit she lost in an unhappy marriage. And the beautiful Caroline is scrambling to cope with her mother's dementia and a Hollywood career that never really happened. Together, they're about to explore the invigorating reality that even the most eventful lives have second acts...and friendship doesn't come with a statute of limitations."--P. [4] of cover.

All for One

by Melody Carlson

Published 1 March 2011
Life is heating up for the four Lindas and it's not just hot flashes! Abby's losing sleep over her husband's health and neglecting her bed-and-breakfast dreams. Caroline may have waited too long to put her Alzheimer's-afflicted mom in a care facility. Marley's hard-won independence is threatened by her grown son's neediness. And Janie's having a hard time being everyone's rock as the relationship she counted on falters. Add to that a house fire, a missing set of dishes, a bully brother, plus a half-crazy blonde named Donna, and things get really complicated. But with each new twist their lives take, the Lindas are learning that good friends are the best family a girl can have.
