This is a timeless tale of the bonds of friendship, close-knit community told with wit, humor, and dignity as the many characters explore the vicissitudes of life. Fans of warm-hearted stories will relish this well-crafted story that makes you laugh, cry, and feel good about life.

I hope Mr. Moore is at work on a second book. I really want to spend more time with the Supremes!
The Supremes are three women who have been friends since childhood.

I really liked the three main characters and their significant others. Parts of the book were hilarious, like the horrible wedding, while others were heart breaking.
Absolutely loved this!! It's hard to add to the praise in the reviews posted thus far - all I can say is yes, fantastic, lovable characters, laugh out loud moments, sobbing moments, laughing and sobbing together moments. A unique novel about friendships and family that touches every corner of your heart!
