About this product

Product Information

The Gardens of Covington joyously celebrates women and friendships, families and love, laughing through the tears, thinking with the head and the heart. The ladies, so real and inspiring, will make you wish they were your neighbors. If this is your first visit to the small town of Covington, you'll feel comfortably at home in the white farmhouse with the yellow shutters on Cove road that once again teems with warmth and fresh hope for today and tomorrow. If it's your second visit, you'll be thrilled to sit on the front porch once again and catch up with old friends and neighbors. Hannah, cool-headed and calm, battles to save their beloved hills from the rapacious development that has already ruined Loring Valley, only five minutes form Cove Road. Amelia, giddy with a newfound love, abandons the ladies and her photography to please her dashing new beau. And Grace is driven to prove she has an eye for business when she and her steady companion, Bob Richardson, open the Cottage Tearoom. New friends and neighbors are introduced. Eccentric Lurina Masterson, an eighty-one-year-old bride, brings tears of joy to all when, wearing her childhood dream of white satin, she married "Old Man," who is ninety-one. And George Maxwell, the ladies' closest neighbor, provides an inspired solution to preserving Covington's lush hills and valleys. Joan Medlicott writes lovingly about the complexity and tenderness of women. she writes with honesty about relationships, about love and passion, about commitment and friendship, as well as about the intricate bonds between parents and their children. As you join the ladies of Covington through their highs and their lows, their joys and their sorrows, you will not want the book to end, nor will you wish to leave their world behind you.

The Gardens from Joan Medlicott's Covington Series
Being at an age where I can relate to the Ladies of Covington may have added to my interest in this series, but I think any age group could empathize with them. One can feel the despair they felt in the first book when each lady, for their own reason, was sent to a nursing home. In this book they are really bring their lives together and realize that life is not over at any age as long as one can maintain health. Joan Medlicott, at 64, herself is proving that by starting this series. This series is a great inspiration to anyone reaching retirement or empty nest time of life. Each book leaves the reader wanting to know what these three elderly, very spry ladies are going to do next. There are no boring chapters in this book and it is very hard to lay down when necessary chores need tending.Read full review
