Spinning Forward - (Cedar Key) by Terri Dulong (Paperback)

About the Book

In the bestselling tradition of Kate Jacobs' "The Friday Night Knitting Club" comes a wonderfully assured women's fiction debut, brimming with warmth and wit, about starting over and crafting an ideal life.

Book Synopsis

A New Englander born and bred, the last place Sydney Webster expects to find herself starting over is on an island off the coast of Florida. Yet here she is in Cedar Key, trying to pull herself together after her husband's untimely death--and the even more untimely revelation of his gambling addiction. Bereft of her comfortable suburban life, Syd takes shelter at a college pal's bed and breakfast, where amidst the bougainvillea blossoms and the island's gentle rhythms, a plan begins to form. . .

Syd never considered the possibility of turning her passion for spinning and knitting into something more than a hobby, but when the unique composition of her wool draws attention, a door is opened--the first among many. Yet even as she ventures out of her comfort zone, Syd finds herself stepping into the embrace of a community rich with love, laughter, friendship. . .and secrets. And as long-hidden truths are revealed, Syd faces a choice: spin a safety net--or spin decidedly forward and never look back. . .

""Poignant, absorbing, humorous. . .a debut that tugs at the heart.""

""Captures the essence of what often lies in each of our hearts. Don't miss it!""
