  "When I get old, I hope to have friends as awesome as these. This is an absolutely feel good novel. Naturally, our intrepid characters, wattles and all, undergo all sorts of trials, but it's the compassion and generosity they exhibit that endears the reader." -- Sam Sanders, via NetGalleyZany families, eccentric friends, and ne-er-do-well neighbors inhabit the labyrinthine lives of three women friends as they grapple with real world events in one "Golden Year."An unwelcome visit from local law enforcement, a younger friend's romantic chaos, and the death of a parent combine with daily mundanities---laundry, scones, and senior sex---to create a walloping, raucous read.Opinionated pets---critics and alter egos---offer a rich counterpoint to the human dramas affecting their lives.Unfiltered and compelling, this entertaining sago provides readers of all ages with a new and positive view of growing older.

  The plan was simple; 
  Seduce Anton Koslov so my father could avenge the murder of my brother. 
  I should hate Anton for what he did to Maxim, 
  but the more time I spend with him, 
  the more I realize he’s not the monster my father makes him out to be. 
  Before long, I’ve fallen in love with him. 
  He has no idea who I really am or who my father is. 
  Our whole relationship is based on lies. 
  I need to tell Anton the truth. 
  And I’m about to…when I discover I’m pregnant. 
  To say I’m terrified is an understatement. 
  Especially when I learn exactly what my father has planned for Anton. 
  My father is determined to make sure my happily ever after is forever out of my reach, 
  but he underestimated just how far I’ll go to protect the man I love.

  I see you there, creeping in the darkness. Come, come, sit down I have a tale to tell. A fable spanning much of this land, for Alidor is vast and its people many. Though this is not a tale of valiant knights or handsome heroes, after the human’s war few of their ilk remained. No, this is the tale of quick witted thieves, skilful hunters, bloodthirsty warriors and keen eyed rangers.Once again great armies march forth across these lands. Once again shadow’s roam free, but I have a tale that may just turn the tide of the war to come. Hush now and make yourself comfortable.For our tale begins in a forest called The Fang when the last human in Alidor washes ashore to meet the terrifying sight of a wolf’s jaws.
