A lifetime of lies can't hide a heart longing for connection.
Barbara is a widow, a recent retiree, and a liar. She tells lies like she drinks hot coffee--easily and often. Now, her three independent, grown kids are facing challenges, and Barbara's helpful lies are catching up with her. When her oldest daughter, Jenna, announces her plans to carry a baby for another couple, Barbara feels compelled to intervene. She doesn't want Jenna leaving a trail of regret--she knows a little something about that.
Enter Stewart, a recovered alcoholic who doesn't lie about anything. At first, Barbara closes herself off to the idea of romance, but Stewart is persistent and patient. Barbara begins to wonder if maybe she's capable of change, after all this time. To keep her family together, she might have to try. Can Barbara embrace honesty and find love again?
Target Audience: Readers of women's fiction, family drama, and heartwarming stories.
