A delightful new novel of love and friendship from Karen Aldous…


Amazon
315 pages
Ginny is alone now after losing her husband, so her friends (her F.L.O.W.E.R.S) decide with his first memorial imminent, learning to ski in the Swiss Alps would be a great distraction for her. What Ginny’s friends fail to add into the equation however, is their own distractions! The baggage they carry with them not only threatens their skiing but scales mountainous emotions throughout the trip. The questions then are…can their friendships survive, and can Ginny ever trust enough to love again?

I would definitely call this Womens Fiction. It is about a group of women of a mature age.
All are going through changes in their lives, being widowed or having husbands in various stages of career change.
It has been a year since Ginny's husband died. Near the end, when he did not know what he was saying, he apologized. For what, Ginny is unsure. Now he is gone, will she ever know?
Before he became too ill, he had wanted to go skiing with his wife. Now, she is going with her friends, and will have a brief memorial for him. 
Only one member of the group is a skier. She arranges the plans, but she seems to have an ulterior motive herself. Another of the women does not live in the UK, as do the others. Her kids are grown and she misses her friends and wants to move back. She also knows something about Ginny's husband*s secret. Even those who talk frequently don*t know everything that each of the others deals with regularly.
As happens when women take trips, there will be some flirting with men they meet.

This is a book about discovering a new path and rediscovering oneself that has gotten pushed aside while dealing with life*s daily requirements and compromises. Secrets will be revealed and friendships are tested. 
This is a book you*ll want to take your time to absorb as you get to know the ladies.

Karen Aldous enjoys village life on the edge of the north-downs in Kent with easy access to the buzz of London. Not only does she love the passive pleasures of reading and writing, she also craves the more active pursuits with her family and friends such as walking, cycling and skiing especially when they involve food and wine!

Much of Karen's inspiration comes from her travels and meeting people. The UK, France, Greece, Switzerland, Italy and parts of the USA and Asia are just some you will experience in her books to date. However, wherever she goes, new characters emerge in 'Karen's World' screaming at her to tell their stories; past or present. She loves to write about strong independent women who can direct their own lives - but struggle to control them! And, of course there's always a gorgeous hunk or two!
