Tapestry of Fortunes by Elizabeth Berg

Cece is still trying to get over the death of her best friend, Penny. She decides to take a break from her job (self-help author and motivational speaker) and find a new place to live. She finds that--renting a house with three other women: Lise, Jodi and Irene. Cece decides to take a road trip to visit an old flame and the other women decide to go with there--they each have their own past that they want to revisit and/or confront. This trip draws them closer together and also adds an element of closure to their individual lives. 

This was a good women's fiction read. The characters were interesting and likable. Their stories were interesting as well and readers will hope that things work out in a good way for each of the four. This was a quick read but I enjoyed it.

I received a copy of this book from the Amazon Vine program in exchange for a review.
