Three best friends met every Tuesday for twenty-six years. And then they stopped.
From the author of the bestselling Sweeney Sisters Series comes a novel of friendship, family, and hope.
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.
This is a new release of an edition originally published by Leisure Time Books.

A moving novel that will capture your heart from the very beginning and hold on to it long after you have turned the last page.
Ashley Farley introduces us to three long time friends who have met every Tuesday for an afternoon of sweet tea, mini sandwiches, and the chance to truly focus on one another and to catch up on each other’s lives. They have done this since they were first married, had children, as those children grew up and moved on to have their own lives. Now in their 50’s they have all reached a different point in their lives. Each are facing different challenges/events/feelings in regard to where they are in life. Midge is thinking of getting married, but has many reservations about her potential spouse. Lula feels as if her life has hit a pattern of monotony and is trying to figure out how to add something else to her life. Georgia feels like her marriage might be in trouble but doesn’t want to face it. She also has decided to get a job. The problem with the job? It will interfere with their Tuesdays and that is unacceptable to both Midge and Lula.
Aside from the interrupted Tuesday afternoons, each woman has things that are taking place in their lives. Midge is struggling with her relationship and potential business partnership. Georgia is adding more hours and responsibilities at work and is getting more and more alert about things at home. Lula is planning a welcome home party for her oldest daughter who is coming back to Charleston to visit after 7 years but is struggling in getting it all done.
Amidst all of this, other life changing events are continuing to take place in what are oitmod their control and almost beyond their full awareness or focus. The three friends are not able to count on each other or support one another as much they have been for the past 26 years. Until one day changes everything for all of them. The question is will it be too late to be there for each other? Or have certain actions started to tear their friendships apart irrevocably?
A heartwarming novel that will bring love, peace, warmth and the joy of friendship and family to your heart. Yet it’s heartbreaking moments will touch you and pull at you and make you value each moment of each day with your self, spouse, friends, family, children, and in leaving memories and a legacy in the heart of others.
Three very different women who have built a lifetime friendship are so well developed character wise that they are the women you meet each Tuesday and share your life with. They each have the strength of the southern woman, yet they also have their own flaws and shortcomings which they try to hide or ignore. And that is ok with you. They are relatable, reliable, realistic and lively. They each have different qualities and characteristics they bring to your and one another’s lives. You and they learn from each other but also know each other so well that you can finish one another’s thoughts and sentences.
Their story is that of many southern woman and yet, they are the stories of each of us. Little pieces of Georgia, Midge, and Lula are found in each one of us. As is the story told in this novel. The story of strength, survival, loss, gain, honesty, acceptance, fear, admiration, challenge and so much more. Lessons still yet to learn and to share. All from a tradition that started every Tuesday afternoon 26 years ago with sweet tea, mini sandwiches, and three friends.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The reason I'm not rating this 5 stars is threefold. Overall the characters lacked complexity in what was an ideal story line to develop those complexities. Particularly as the novel progressed past its climax. Which posed another problem for this reader: the climax was utterly, completely predictable from the book's earliest chapters. It was clear to see where the author was going. The overlapping climax felt like a token, "progressive" and "modern" issue intended to show how PC most Southern women are. Which brings me to the book's completely implausible resolution. No spoilers. You'd have to read it for yourself and draw your own conclusions, but it didn't ring true that a character written as utterly unyielding and set in her ways would have such an abrupt 180 degree turnaround. I've lived in the south and have family and friends in the south. Like it or not, that's still Bible Belt territory, complete with very conservative values that the author seemed to brush away like crumbs on a tablecloth. Everyone moving on into their wonderfully promising futures at the end. I love a happy ending, yet this one felt it could have been written with a more realistic tone. Still, it was a good enough book that would make a nice beach read for women *not* holding conservative views. Your mileage may vary, accordingly.
