Promises of Change (Ladies of Covington Series #8)

Another winner from Joan Medlicott!

Have read the entire series of the Covington Series books and have trouble putting them down before I finish reading them. Hoping for another book in this series!

We catch up on all the ladies in this latest installment of Joan's Covington series.

If you love this series, you were as anxious as I was for it to be published. I was missing the Covington ladies and their sagas. Joan is not shy about covering current topics in her story lines(compulsive gambling,foreign born spouses,various health problems of the maturing characters, convenient marriages--to name a few). These books are not earth shaking but nice light reading for those of us who are not 20,30 or 40 anymore.I appreciate that she lets her characters still have romance and even sex in their lives as well as the challenges of every day life.

curl up and catch up with Joan's characters....

Joan medlicott is a gift and I enjoy her style and like her stories very much. The "Ladies" have been on a great adventure and their transplanted NC home has come alive with them around. All of her written friends remind me of my own dear friends. One of the greatest strengths is creating words pictures of where they are and who they are. I loved it just like the other 7. Great gift for someone that you have never bought a book for....enjoy and close your eyes for you will want to postpone the ending.

Finally Another Medlicott Continuation

I loved the first Medlicott books, and became so interested in the characters that I felt I knew them. These ladies were brave to take off to a new area and establish new lives. It made you want to get to know each better. These were books with love, sadness, happiness and all sorts of emotions. The only problem is that Joan Medlicott waited so long to bring out this book that I feared that I would have forgotten important parts. Fortunately, it didn't take long to pick up on all aspects of the story of these women, their families and their lives. Of course, the end left the reader wanting the story to continue....and let's not only hope it does, but let's also hope that Medlicott gets the next book to us sooner!

Jodi Is Always A Great Read

The theme of this book is very original and thought provoking. Decisions regarding children are quiet daunting. This one was something else!

Fans of the Covington tales will enjoy the latest escapades

In rural Covington, North Carolina, Hannah and Max marry, but maintain their separate houses although she spends many nights at his. Her two friends Grace and Amelia who share a farmhouse with Hannah are fine with the arrangement, as is Max.

However, their marital bliss abruptly ends when Max¿s estranged son Zachary accompanied by his pregnant wife Sarina, arrives from India. Hannah and her two best buddies welcome Sarina to the Tar Heel State with friendship and quickly the mother-daughter in-laws forge a strong bond while baby shopping in town together. However, the schism between their husbands remains wider than the Great Gorge even after Sarah is born, which dampens the joy of a newborn

Fans of the Covington tales will enjoy the latest escapades as Hannah¿s new family issues take center stage although plenty happens to Grace and Amelia too. Hannah worries that the estrangement between her beloved husband and his son, which already huts the pair, will cause pain to others, but is unsure how to proceed to bringing about a reconciliation. Obviously for the Covington audience, this is a warm character driven entry; as all the novels are.
