"This series is not about dying. It's about joyously, lovingly, and energetically living." Amazon Reviewer

When you find yourself, you've found home.

Momma died before the bluebonnets faded. Losing my mother to Alzheimer's did not bring the relief I'd expected. Dr. Ellis assures me that feeling lost is natural. He says I'll eventually find my footing. Itty's a good friend. A very good friend. But the truth is, Momma's passing has put an end to my reason for staying in Texas. Now that an opportunity to chase an old dream has arisen, I have no choice but to tell the good doctor goodbye.

I never expected to be so torn between what I thought I wanted and the ranch I haven't called home in years.

Brimming with wit, authenticity, and southern charm, FIRST FROST explores the inspirational and emotional healing of a family shattered by tragedy.

You'll have to laugh to keep from crying.

The Women of Fossil Ridge Series is a touching addition to the small town, generational series of favorite authors like Ann B. Ross, Jan Karon, and Beth Hoffman.

"Gentry's small-town series is a masterful peek into what it takes to resuscitate a mother-daughter relationship. Series sparkles with humor, heart, and southern charm." Amazon Reviewer
