Goodreads:  When new next-door neighbors Georgia, Midge, and Lula first assembled on Georgia’s porch in Charleston for sweet tea, they couldn’t have known their gathering was the beginning of a treasured tradition. For twenty-six years they have met on Tuesdays at four o’clock, watching the seasons change and their children grow up, supporting each other in good times and in bad. With their ambitions as different as their personalities, these best friends anticipate many more years of tea time. And then, one Tuesday, Georgia shares news that brings their long-standing social hour to an abrupt halt. And that’s only the beginning as unraveling secrets threaten to alter their friendship forever.


Kritters Thoughts:  Three women have been friends for years and spent Tuesday afternoons in Charleston, SC gathering on a front porch and start with tea and maybe move to wine every once in awhile!  Each women is entering their later years and each woman has a little drama in their life.  Don't worry there isn't soap opera level drama, it is just the right amount for each woman.  

As to not spoil any of the storylines, I will play it general and say usually in these types of books I prefer one character and their drama over another - that wasn't the case in this book, I loved them all equally.  I will say that 3/4 in one of the characters storylines was really in the front of the other two, but you can understand why when you get there and I would say I enjoyed it.  

I loved Ashley's writing.  Each character was unique and their own story, but wove in and out of each other so easily.  I loved how it was easy to read these characters as friends and neighbors and you can imagine them walking in and out of each other's homes.  

I have had a few of Ashley's other books on my radar and after reading this one I may have to find them and read them soon!


Rating: definitely a good read, but can't read two in a row
