Change of AddressFamily & Friends, Faith, Fame & Fortune. Important factors in life. Which matters most? Are they dominoes, destined to fall one after another? Or more like a deck of cards? Lose one, might as well toss the rest. After her husband's sudden death, Addie Davis finds herself alone in small town Summervale, GA with four young kids to raise. Unable to share her irreverent humor with those around her, Addie confides her observations on life after he's gone to her dead husband Vin, in humorous, heart-breaking emails. Meanwhile, family & friends gather. Before long, the Casserole Cavalry arrives. Will they be enough to restore her faith? Or will her sass drive them all away? While Addie battles for a fortune she's not sure will bring her what she wants, she meets a famous stranger. He claims love at first sight, but her reaction is to scoff at him. Is Hank Mooney too good to be true? Or can he restore Addie's faith, in life and in love? Will her infamous past keep her from a fortunate new life? |
