Just in Time

De: Marie Bostwick

Narrado por: Emily Sutton-Smith, Kate Marcin, Carol Monda

When Grace Saunders vowed to take her husband for better or worse, she meant every word. She and Jamie are solid, mutually supportive, and certain of their future together. And then, on a hiking trip for their 15th anniversary, an accident leaves Jamie in a coma, unable to move or communicate.

As months pass, Grace is in limbo - still married, yet utterly alone and burdened with responsibilities that threaten to sink her. Meeting Nan and Monica, unlikely friends who need Grace almost as much as she needs them, makes life bearable, if not quite happy. But a chance evening spent with a man she barely knows brings Grace a glimmer of joy she hasn't felt since the tragedy - joy that is, however, followed by feelings of turmoil and guilt. At work, she faces a different sort of crisis, as well as her need to keep the job that pays for Jamie's medical care.

Grace has always assumed that bright, clear lines separate right from wrong. Now that idealism is blurred by dilemmas that test her beliefs about marriage and loyalty, and she must look to her new friends and inside herself for answers. This poignant novel explores the limits of responsibility - to others and to ourselves - and the breadth and wisdom of love.

Good road trip listen

voices get a little mixed up and confusing at times however enjoyed the story and characters.

Just in time

Such a beautiful story with wonderful endings. The journeys of three different friends to achieve total happiness is heart warming and inspiring.

Fun Summer Read

Cute story, and likable characters!
Not my usual type of reading but I enjoyed every minute.

I loved this book

Lovely stories of three completely different women who become friends, search for happiness, and find it.

3 interwoven, but quite different, lives:

This book is a well written story of a few years in the lives of 3 women who created a small support group of their own. They just didn't quite fit into the "widows" group. Different ages, different problems, but all needing a few supportive friends. We watch them go from difficult times to happily changed lives that have purpose and satisfaction and lots of love. Ultimately it's inspiring and hopeful. I recommend it.
