Welcome to Litsy!

A novel about the bonds of friendship, the power of forgiveness, and the lessons you learn when you let go. Sophie Wharton doesn't like losing control, especially of her life. She's always been the girl who's kept it together--the girl with a charming boyfriend, a lively social life, and plans to start her own bakery. Life is great for Sophie a few years out of college in Seattle...or so she thinks. Then a series of events start to turn Sophie's perfectly ordered world upside down. After three years, her boyfriend suddenly decides to call it quits. Her close camaraderie of girlfriends is starting to fall apart. Secrets are exposed. And when she thinks things couldn't get any worse, Sophie learns that one of her friends is fighting a devastating battle. Now living with her best friend Claire, Sophie struggles with learning to forgive or forget those who break hearts, while trying to accept that there are some situations she cannot control. But is there still a light at the end of the tunnel? Can a girl find the "good" in the "bad"? This is a heartfelt story about what happens when friendships take different paths and when life doesn't exactly go according to plan. It's a story about betrayal, forgiveness, acceptance, and letting go. About what happens when girlfriends break hearts. While this Women's Fiction novel is Book #1 in the When Girlfriends collection, each When Girlfriends novel can be read as a stand-alone (and should be read with a tasty cupcake within close reach).
