This is the first book I've read by Louise Shaffer. The beginning of this book was slow for me, but after the "story within a story" began, I was drawn in completely. The main story did get better with time and by the end of the book, while I was ready for it to be done, I was pretty enthralled. Francesca is a writer who had great success with her first book but is struggling to come up with that great next story. On top of her writer's block troubles, her marriage falls apart and she becomes broke. She begins to write the story of an elderly woman's parents, and that's when the fun begins. What a great vacation read...or for any other time as well. Charming, funny, thought-provoking and finally truly satisfying. Louise Shaffer is an often over-looked author with other great titles to her credit. This story just took me on a heart-journey right along with the character...not a dull moment page after page and that wonderful feeling of cheering for her all along the way in hopes that she finds the answer to her dreams and desires. Does she? Read this and journey with her to the end...and don't forget to look occasionally at the cover because it is just priceless!

I couldn't get through it (which is unusual for me). I was bored.
