She built a life for everyone else. Now it's her turn.
At forty-eight, Jackie Turner is beginning to unravel. Her once-steady career has lost its momentum, her home feels too quiet without her daughters, and her father's health is slipping. In the silence, she begins to wonder if the life she built was ever really her own.
Longing for something more, Jackie returns to her Minnesota hometown and to the friends who once felt like family. The Kaleidoscope Girls were inseparable during their summers at camp, and now, decades later, their reunion sparks something she didn't expect. Laughter resurfaces. Trust rebuilds. And the path forward begins to brighten.
Better with Friends, the first book in The Kaleidoscope Girls series, is a heartfelt and relatable women's fiction novel about second chances, lifelong friendship, and the quiet courage it takes to start over. Perfect for readers of Viola Shipman and Susan Wiggs.
