Golden Girl Hammered at Driftwood Bay (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798991597807)

An enchanting, feel-good journey about a woman's search to rebuild her lost life, with only her trusty dog, a very special set of hammers, and sudden mysteries happening all around her.

"I'd drive a stick-shift box spring mattress down the highway if I could," Goldie thought. The idea of ever getting out of bed had been inconceivable since that fateful day when the sudden letter arrived that changed Goldie's life forever. Within 72 hours, she lost everything, including her beloved home. For the last ten days, she'd been living at The Lucky Clover Hotel, sulking in bed with take-out food and her soulmate dog, Margo, while her rickety minivan was packed with her entire life's belongings.

It's Margo that forces Goldie out of bed as they finally hit the road to the Driftwood Bay Art Festival where Goldie was lucky enough to snag a spot as a vendor for her hammered Mandala jewelry.

But Goldie isn't just embarking on a journey to the Art Festival; hers is a journey of the soul as well, starting with the unexpected meeting of a dashing, mysterious stranger who fixes their broken-down van and causes a stir in Goldie's heart.

With hilarious internal dialogue that sometimes borders on insanity and torturous self-doubt, Goldie faces moments of gut-wrenching pain and loss, together with tender moments of divine joy.

Three days of hammering jewelry at the festival will take you on a feel-good, serendipitous adventure, where you will laugh at Goldie's quirky way of dealing with life's challenges and, at the same time, you will be touched by her never-ending search for empowerment. And it doesn't hurt that the dishy, helpful stranger keeps reappearing in her life, with plenty of secrets of his own.

Follow Goldie and Margo as they find themselves smack in the middle of an enchanted mystery unfolding all around them. Not to mention Margo's continual search for bacon. With hope, her dog, and her trusty hammer, Goldie tries to hit the nail on the head and allow herself to go from Grieving Girl . . . to Golden Girl.
