Once Upon A Project,
Dafina Books, coming April 29, 2008
Elyse, Susan, and Grace are tickled when their friend Pat organizes a reunion luncheon for past residents of the Chicago Housing Project where they all grew up. It is, after all, celebrating the fiftieth anniversary of its opening, and the lifelong friends are also turning fifty. But none of them suspects the event will have life-altering changes.
Elyse plans to attend with her husband, but as usual lately, he bows out, pleading fatigue. He's thirteen years her senior, and Elyse fears he's slowing down. But does that mean she has to do the same?
Susan also arrives alone. Her marriage is faltering since her diagnosis of breast cancer. But when she runs into a former flame at the after-party, it feels like time has stood still . . .
Twice divorced, Grace worries she'll grow old alone. Once a cute kid four years Grace's junior, Eric is now a handsome man whose age doesn't matter - but their differences in financial status might . . .
Forced by tragic circumstances to give up the love of her life, Pat never again found love. When an old friend from law school sees a media report about the reunion and contacts her, will she at last find the love that's eluded her?
