At Last (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781946014306)

At Palm Lakes Senior Community, the residents may be retired, but they haven't given up on living life to the fullest. Unexpected healing, new beginnings and the promise of love can be even more rewarding when they arrive in the autumn of life.

Olivia moves into the assisted living complex and struggles to resolve a sinister mystery that has engulfed her friend Sophie, who lives in the nursing wing. Samantha bonds with her eccentric mother Maddie while juggling a new job, a faltering marriage, an attraction to her boss and all the responsibilities of easing her mother through the move to assisted living and a diagnosis of cancer. New resident Marilyn attempts to adjust to divorced life after fleeing across country, only to be stalked by her abusive ex, while her neighbor Steven quietly nurtures hopes of romance.

Opportunities for change arrive with dawn each day. Time grinds on, but the residents of Palm Lakes make every day count. Anything is possible, and these seniors demonstrate that the wisdom of years can yield unexpectedly sweet fruit.

At Last is the fourth standalone novel in the Autumn In The Desert series. If you believe that life doesn't end at retirement, you'll love Maggie McPhee's latest novel about a gated community in the Arizona desert.
