Hope Is Chancey, Paperback

It's a new year in Chancey, and hope abounds.

Carolina hopes her daughter, Savannah, will figure out what she's doing after graduation, hopes her husband, Jackson, working from home won't drive her crazy, and hopes being a grandma to her son Will's new baby will be as fun as everyone says.

Missus and Laney both hope they'll be elected mayor.
