Description



Book Synopsis



In this heartfelt story about finding love in loss, three widows are forced under the same roof, where they'll need to overcome grief, anger, and old secrets to put their family back together.

Since her husband's death six months ago, Yesica Diaz-Taylor seems to be taking her grief in stride. Then an angry outburst at work shatters the illusion. Her mandated support group counseling doesn't help much. Yesica has always kept her feelings close, so even when an unlikely friendship blossoms with the group's facilitator, she still has reasons for holding back. She's just not ready to share.

Ana Diaz has been widowed for five years and continues to live life exactly as she did with her late husband. When her house floods, she's forced to shake things up. Although it was never part of her plan, Ana moves in with her eldest daughter, Yesica. But the new living arrangement tests their already strained relationship.

Shadowed by unresolved tensions, Yesica, Ana, and matriarch Mama Melda must learn to share a home, their heartbreak, and, once and for all, the haunting family secrets that have kept them apart.

"5 stars! Another amazing book by Annette Chavez Macias. I absolutely adored this book. When We Were Widows might even be my favorite of hers. There's a magically emotional power in Macias' storytelling that somehow breaks your heart while at the same time repairing it. This compelling and beautifully written story is a true testament to the author's rare talent and skill. This is a must read. And reread!" --Diana Muñoz Stewart, bestselling author of the Black Ops Confidential series

"A poignant and moving novel that deftly portrays the challenges and triumphs of three incredible women. This story should be on your not-to-be-missed list!" --Mia Sosa, USA Today bestselling author
