Synopsis
DESCRIPTION: Nonny Frett understands the meaning of the phrase 'in between a rock and a hard place' better than any woman alive. She's got two mothers, 'one deaf-blind and the other four baby steps from flat crazy.' She's got two men: a husband who's easing out the back door; and a best friend, who's laying siege to her heart in her front yard. And she has two families: the Fretts, who stole her and raised her right; and the Crabtrees, who lost her and won't forget how they were done wrong. Now, in Between, Georgia, population 90, a feud that began the night Nonny was born is escalating, and a random act of violence is about to ignite a stash of family secrets. Ironically, it might be just what the town needs...if only Nonny weren't stuck in between.
Reviews
I LOVED '...Alabama' but thought that this book left something to be desired. I think it took a little too long for the storyline to develop. The characters were likeable enough throughout and I wanted to love them but it just never 'took off' for me. I won't give up on this author because I truly loved her first book and know she can write but I was disappointed in a book that I held my breath waiting for....
