FIVE WINTERS

Five Winters. Two dreams. One determined woman.

Ever since Beth Bailey was a girl, she’s been in love with her best friend’s older brother, Mark. She’s held out hope ever since that maybe, someday, he’d love her back. But now Beth is thirty-five years old, and on the day of Mark’s wedding to another woman, she finally accepts the wake-up call she needs to move on.

Beth’s dream of marrying her first love may be over, but her biggest dream is still within reach: becoming a mother. Having lost her own parents very young, there’s nothing Beth wants more in life, and nothing she’ll stop at to make it come true.

Over the course of five winters, and with unexpected twists along the way, Beth will come to startling realizations about family, friendship, the meaning of love, and most importantly, herself, on the winding path to happiness and, she hopes, to motherhood.
