The Kaleidoscope Girls

Welcome to the stories of a fun group of forever friends as they navigate the challenges of midlife together.

She built a life for everyone else. Now it’s her turn.

In this heartfelt and relatable women’s fiction novel, Jackie Turner is doing her best to navigate midlife, but the pieces are no longer falling into place. At forty-eight, her once-promising career has stalled. Her nest is empty. Her father’s health is declining. Alone in the big house that used to echo with laughter, she wonders how it all slipped so far off track.

Desperate to reconnect with something real, Jackie returns to her Minnesota hometown and to the women who once knew her best. Time and distance may have faded their connection, but as they gather again, she discovers the bond is still strong and exactly what she needs.

Better with Friends is the first book in The Kaleidoscope Girls, a women’s fiction series about second chances, lifelong friendship, and finding yourself in the middle of life. Perfect for fans of Hope Holloway, Fiona Baker, and Rebecca Regnier.
