This is a story about three sisters who lives crash around them. It’s about finding the strength to pick yourself up, reevaluate past decisions and take a chance on the future. I really liked each of the sisters. They are strong willed and very talented. It was easy to read and sucked me in from the very beginning.

Love this story of the 3 sisters that gathered at the Orchid Inn and they way that each of them ended up there.. Grandma Eileen ran the Inn and each of them contributed to helping her. There father had left them when the youngest were 6 and 8. Sarah and Ava were much older. Does he eventually come back and explain it all to them. Do they accept him back, A GOOD READ. This is the first time I have read this author and enjoyed the story. This is the first of a 6 book series.

The Orchid Inn by Aisling Delaney is a charming book about family...what tears it apart and what brings it together again. The Orchid Inn is a B&B run by Gran Eileen, the grandmother of the girls around whom the story centers. Three of the four sisters have had major life changes and retreat to the inn for healing and advice from Gran, and hopefully some answers as to why their father suddenly left them 17 years before. Ava's marriage imploded as her high power career came to a sudden end. Sarah's boyfriend has died of ALS, leaving her broke and adrift after their long jet-setting relationship. Charlotte's marriage has just broken up because her husband has told her he never wants children...something she can't live with. Can these women come to terms with their changed lives and reconnect with their sisters?
Thank you to the author, Sunrise Books and NetGalley for an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series...this was the first of six!

This book is definitely not my cup of tea and I did not finish it. I found it to corny and trite, with the characters stereotypes. The book is written at about the fifth grade reading level and it was obvious that everyone, miserable as they had been when arriving at Orchid Island, would live happily ever after.
I received this book from the publisher and NetGalley.
