The Best Life Book Club - Sheila Roberts

 On our shelves now and ready to ship in 1-2 business days.

This first trade standalone summer read from USA Today bestselling author Sheila Roberts brings her trademark humor and heart to new readers, as a newly single mom starts a job at a small publishing house in the Pacific Northwest and discovers that good books and great friends are the perfect ingredients for a fresh start.

It started as a book club. It became a way to build a better life together.

Karissa Newcomb is ready for a new start in a new neighborhood, as far away as she can get from Seattle, where her husband cheated on her with the neighbor who was supposed to be her best friend. She and her nine-year-old daughter are moving on to the city of Gig Harbor on the bay in Puget Sound. She even has a new job as an assistant at a small publishing company right in Gig Harbor. Her new boss seems like a bit of a curmudgeon, but a job is a job, and she loves to read and the idea of possibly meeting writers sounds fabulous.

Soon she finds she’s not the only one in need of a refresh. Her new neighbors, Alice and Margot, are dealing with their own crises. Alice is still grieving her late husband and hasn’t been able to get behind the wheel of a car since a close call after his death. Margot is floundering after getting divorced and laid off in short order. They could all use a distraction, and a book club seems like just the ticket. Together, the three women, along with Alice’s grumpy older sister Josie, embark on a literary journey that just might be the kickstart they need to start building their best lives yet.
