Poker, Prayer, and Garden Wars (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781462064465)

Anna was living the life that she thought she wanted; her work life was busy, but she spent many of her nights alone. She had left her small hometown for the big city with the hope of mending her broken heart, but that had not happened yet. She was having trouble facing the pain of her break-up with Jake, the love of her life, and she really missed her spunky, mischievous grandmother, Mayvee, whom she had left behind.

Then one day, she gets a call at work that something has happened to her grandmother; she must come home immediately to be with her. Once she arrives, she discovers that while her grandmother will recover, Anna must stay with her for at least six weeks during her recovery. Gradually, Anna discovers that she is able to move past her broken heart to forgive Jake and move on with her life-and maybe find a new love.

With the help of her grandmother, Mayvee, and an arrogant but handsome young man, Anna begins to discover a new life with lots of possibilities. She also learns to enjoy life more as Mayvee along with her "blue-haired bunch" of elderly girlfriends wreak havoc on their very peaceful small town. Be prepared to laugh a lot and cry a little on this extraordinary journey of a very ordinary girl.
