Product Description Christy had given up on life completely-a failing marriage, her inability to conceive children, and her never ending job as a secretary at a law firm-were just a few of the reasons she dreaded her life. Drowning in her misery, blowing off her best friend Annas ear, and living in denial-Christy was heading for disaster. That is until Christy unexpectedly crosses paths with an elderly woman named Melody at a nursing home. Fierce, independent, loyal, and hard-headed, Melody is the new mysterious resident at the nursing home where Anna works. With no records of her birth or identity-but plenty with of wealth to keep her there, Melody begins telling Christy stories of her life growing up-beginning in the 1940s. Christy immediately seeks solace through Melodys stories, in relation to her own life decisions-and the bond between these two women grow, while their stories of heartache, tragedy, love, laughter, and empowerment help both women find out who they truly are and who they want to be. Then Christy meets Nathaniel Thompson, the handsome, green eyed, brain surgeon, the man of her dreams-and as she continues to confide in Melody, she begins to realize that perhaps meeting Nathaniel and Melody around the same time was not just mere coincidence, maybe it was fateor planned As Melodys stories begin to come to an end and Nathaniels mysterious life unravels before Christys eyes, she begins to realize she has to make important choices, and that sometimes life is not about the what ifs or whys, but rather it is about finding something precious and never letting it go.
