Beschreibung
Call it chance or karma, but it is in a cool supermarket on one particularly hot Texas afternoon that three womenstrangers to each othermeet. As similar as chalk is to cheese, Thea, Jill, and Lucy share little in common. And most probably, under normal circumstances, they would not have even noticed the other. But these are not normal circumstances.These women are homelesssomething that in their wildest dreams they could never have imagined. Only men were supposed to be homeless, not women, certainly not children, and definitely not them.It was not that their pre-homeless lives were perfect. Thea grew up poor and still was, but she provided food and a place to live for her family. She considered herself lucky and happy. Jill's former life was somewhat easier. Married to a controlling businessman, she believed herself a member of the fortunate upper middle class. She lacked for nothing, except perhaps happiness.Lucy, on the other hand, led a tumultuous life. Growing up with a mother who never wanted her, she was anything but happy. Her struggle to find love led to literally all the wrong places. Then her struggle to provide food and shelter for her two boys led her to jail.Finding themselves and their children alone in the merciless world of homelessness, Jill, Thea, and Lucy realize the only way to survive is to join forces. Yet, to do this means sharing truths about themselves that each keeps hidden. It also means learning to trust.
