The Marvelous Monroe Girls - Book Review

The Marvelous Monroe Girls by Shirley Jump

Three women, Margaret, Emma and Gabriella Monroe are all sisters living in a small town along with their darling grandmother who raised them after their mother died. Each woman has her own memories and pain from their childhood that they are working through. Gabriella had vowed on her mother’s grave to keep their family together, and she is working hard to do just that. When her and her sisters are in the grandmother’s attic, they discover a secret from long ago and it just may be the key to helping raise their grandmothers’ spirits. The girls are on a mission, but for Gabby, there is also something else on her mind, Jake Maddox! Her best friend since she was a small girl, is now an attraction she just will not allow herself to pursue. She has her grandmother and sisters to worry about, a failing business, and a town event to plan. Can she find time to put herself first for a change and find the one thing she has been missing?

This is the first Shirley Jump novel I have read, but it will definitely not be the last. I fell in love with the Monroe sisters, their adorable grandmother and Jake. The family dynamics kept me turning pages to see what would happen next. The writing was brilliant, the characters intriguing and the story line was not only about Gabby and Jake but how to help her grandmother, which made me giggle more than once. I am so excited for the next book to see which sisters’ story is next. Thank you Forever, Grand Central Publishing for my advanced copy to read and review. A solid five star read my friends.
