Short description
“Silver Lining” is the last novella in the Girlfriends trilogy. While delving into her genealogy, Amanda finds proof that her great- grandfather inherited 1000 acres of land over a hundred years ago and lends credence to the stories that had been passed down in her family for generations.Extended description
In "Silver Lining," baby boomer, Amanda Livingston, is a divorcee with two adult children and two grandchildren. Her son and daughter have not lived up to her hopes and dreams for them, but she is the eternal optimist.While researching her family lineage, she discovers that stories passed down through generations about property willed to her great- grandfather were actually true. With this proof in hand, she files a claim for the property that her great-grandfather inherited nearly a hundred and fifty years ago.
Even though her children and sister do not share her optimism, she persists. The quest to uncover the truth gives her the courage to forge new relationships, which she had avoided since her divorce.
Her emergence as a self-fulfilled woman parallels the life-affirming transformations which Mary Jo and Melanie achieved as they sustain a renewed sense of healthy lifestyles and relationships while growing older with dignity and grace.
