Blurb: "Loretha Curry's life is full. A little crowded sometimes, but full indeed. On the eve of her sixty-eighth birthday, she has a booming beauty-supply empire, a gaggle of lifelong friends, and a husband whose moves still surprise her. True, she's carrying a few more pounds than she should be, but Loretha is not one of those women who think her best days are behind her-and she's out to prove wrong her mother, her twin sister, and everyone else with that outdated view. It's not all downhill from here. But after an unexpected loss, Loretha must summon all her strength, resourcefulness, and determination to endure heartbreak, pursue joy, heal old wounds, and chart new paths. With help from her friends, of course."

Opinion: Another decent book by McMillan. Follows along the same themes as many of her other books-the emphasis of family and friends and overcoming life's obstacles. If you're a fan of her works, you should enjoy this one.
