Haywood Smith has the ability to make you smile,laugh out loud and cry. Her southern charactors and lyrical reader keep you listening. The best of her works yet.

Great easy listening.

Haywood Smith has such a way of infusing religion into her books without you feeling like your being preached to. It's nice listen to a good clean book.

Excellent listen!

As a woman over fifty, with three sisters, this was a very enjoyable listen. The narrator was spot on and the story very well written. I also appreciated the lack of profanity and Christian focus.
Highly recommend!!
