Miraculously, they found one another, a mismatched trio of middle-aged women with almost no history in common, yet with so much to share. They wept, raged, grieved and prayed together and discussed their practical problems, deepest fears and loftiest dreams. In the end, through their circle of friendship, they found wisdom, strength and courage—and rediscovered the true meaning of their faith.

The third entry in the "Home Ties" series (after "Abide with Me") reopens in Welleswood, NJ, where we are invited into the lives of three fiftysomething grandmothers. Barbara Montgomery's single-parent son has been murdered, which leaves her and her husband to provide a home for six-year-old twins. Beautician Judy Roberts returns home from work one day to find her son-in-law with the grandson she has not seen in four years, and she soon learns that, with her daughter back in rehab, the boy's father has no intentions of keeping him. Meanwhile, Ginger King's estranged daughter Lily has married into a prestigious family that may not appreciate her single-mother status. So Lily asks Ginger if she can keep her child until she has a chance to make a good impression on her new in-laws. These three strong women must retackle parenting at an age when they thought that chapter of their lives was over. Parr draws readers in from the first page, making them care about these midlife ladies and their life-altering situations. Recommended for public libraries and readers looking for stories revolving around women in this age group. The author lives in New Jersey.Copyright 2007 Library Journal, LLC Used with permission.
