The Wildwater Walking Club Series

When Noreen takes a buyout and gets dumped by a boyfriend in one fell swoop, she finds herself with nothing but time to notice everything that's missing in her life. Tess is the teacher next door, who thought she'd be spending the summer with her college-bound daughter, but now that daughter isn't speaking to her.

For Noreen, Tess, and Rosie, walking the beach together every day has been everything. But after all those steps forward, the Wildwater Walking Club is doing some serious backsliding. Now they're dodging each other in the neighborhood, and Noreen is spending time working on pints of Ben & Jerry's instead of her romance with Rick, the also-lost boyfriend she met at career counseling. A new adventure might be just what they need. Their destination: Provence, the ultimate lavender trip.
