Carolyn Brown is a consummate weaver of tales. This is no exception. Not only are we treated to the sister's journey to love and family, we are given the gift of the romance between Grannie Annie and Zed in flashbacks and his conversations with her spirit.
Dana, the eldest, born out of wedlock believes her sisters have a better life.
Harper and Tawny live a life of hell with their distinctly non-maternal mother, and even though their father lived with them until his death, he would not cross her.
All three sisters has burdens to overcome...but the strong foundation of love laid by Annie and Zed enables them to get past the hurts of childhood and meld into a strong family unit. As they heal they find their 'meant to be.'
The tale brings tears, smiles, laughs and sighs. It's the work of a master storyteller.
I requested this book on NetGalley as soon as I saw the author because I knew it would be enjoyable

Dana, Harper and Tawny see themselves as “sometimes sisters”. They share blood but they are not friends.

Dana was born first. Her parents were in high school when she was born and her dad never claimed her. But her Granny Annie welcomed her into the family with open arms.

Harper followed ten years later and then Tawny. The girls all had the same dad but he only claimed the two later children.

They only saw each other for one month every summer at Granny Annie and “Uncle” Zed’s property. They owned a little business where people can rent cabins and fish at the lake.
But as the girls grew older, they stopped coming.

So they have continued to grown further apart throughout the years. Each girl also faced their own personal dramas and instead of confiding in each other, they let their secrets push them away from each other.

Now Granny Annie has passed away and left the business to her grand daughters. Her and Zed’s wish is that the girls (and Dana’s daughter) will finally become real family.

Well written characters, believable drama, and you cannot help but love Uncle Zed and Granny Annie.

I got to read an early copy of the e book through NetGalley. Very enjoyable story!
