review 1: A sweet and lovely book. Not just a romance, Trudy's story is a coming of age...even if that age is 40. Watching as she and Billy Lee transform the old house Trudy's Aunt Gert had bequeathed her, you also get to see Trudy transform, almost without thought. You cheer along with her as she faces down gossips, an ailing mother's Alzheimer's, and a truly despicable ex husband. You cry with her as she faces depression and uncertainties. Peter, Paul, and Mary are just the icing on the cake. This book is proof that an amazing romance doesn't need to have detailed sex to make it a bestseller. Love this book.
review 2: This book is so funny, and a nice cozy read. A good strong woman, a philandering husband, busybodies, and a story that will will make you smile. Loved i
... moret!From Amazon: Secrets told in the church ladies' room are supposed to stay in the ladies' room. But that doesn't mean that what Trudy overhears there during her great-aunt Gertrude's funeral won't change the rest of her life.Trudy has a daughter in the middle of a major rebellion, a two-timing husband who has been cheating for their entire married life, and a mother with Alzheimer's residing in the local nursing home. She doesn't really need a crumbling old house about to fall into nothing but a pile of memories and broken knickknacks.Billy Lee Tucker, resident oddball in Tishomingo, Oklahoma, lived next door to Gert, and in her will she leaves him the funds to help Trudy remodel the old house. That's fine with Billy Lee, because he's been in love with Trudy since before they started school. And just spending time with her is something he'd never ever allowed himself to dream about.A beautiful home rises up from the old house on Broadway, and right along with it rises up a relationship. But is Trudy too scarred from what she heard in the ladies' room to see a lovely future with Billy Lee? less

More of a romantic book than I usually read, but I liked the story and the characters.

Loved it about time a romance involved someone over 20 and over 100 pounds!
