Starting Now
Starting Now A Blossom Street Novel by Debbie MacomberLibby has recently lost her job that she worked at. She hadn't brought in any new clients but she kept very busy to keep the ones the agency had.
She had lost her mother when she was 10. When she joins a gym she also looked up another friend she used to stay in contact with and that got her to the French cafe on Blossom Street. Then a stop into the yarn store where she remembered knitting with her mother.
The girls in the back were making preemie caps and I felt a bond as that's what I do for my local hospital, that and booties. Glad she did learn how to make them again and she went with the girls to the hospital to drop them off where they were looking for people to hold and rock the infants on a volunteer basis.
Her husband had wanted kids but she wanted a career first so they divorced.
Love how the older characters are brought up to date with just the briefest of information, doesn't clog up the book.
Dr. Phillip Stone, the heart of stones doctor he's referred to as gives off a rude mood anytime Libby has been around him-at the gym or at the hospital...He's a specialist in heart defects on the very young and he talks to Libby one day asking about her pregnant daughter til she realizes he meant one of the girls that helped her drop off the preemie hats.
How she can approach Lydia at the yarn store about it, especially since it's none of her business and she doesn't know her very well either...
Robin her friend is on a secret mission=-to get the judge to get Libby a job and to go on a date with the judge herself...
I liked the book but did not like the subject of what was going on with the 13 year old. I know it's an everyday thing but it disgusts me that it occurs.
