Ann Brashares, who wrote four insanely popular books about the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (two of which were made into equally popular movies), has countless fans. I imagine she also receives a lot of fan mail, and I'd wager that a great deal of it asks the questions "But what happened to Carmen, Lena, Tibby and Bridget next? Did they fall in love, get married, have children? Read More

FOLLY BEACH is not your typical romance in which the protagonists spar with each other for half the book and spend the second half jumping in and out of bed. Rather it is a straightforward love story with a story within the story. Cate Cooper and John Risley are smitten from the moment they run into each other. That is not to say there are no complications, but those come from others and are conquered by love.
Reading Frank's books is like cleansing the palate: a great story, genuinely nice people, and a setting you will long to experience for yourself.

A woman returns to the past to find her future in this exciting and heartwarming new tale of loss, acceptance, family and love from Dorothea Benton Frank.
About the Book
With its glistening beaches, laidback Southern charm, and enticing Gullah tradition, Folly Beach has long been one of South Carolina’s most historic and romantic spots. It is the land of Cate Cooper’s childhood, the place where all the ghosts of her past roam freely. Cate never thought she’d return to the beach house named for this lovely strip of coast. But circumstances have changed, thanks to her newly dead husband, whose financial --- and emotional --- perfidy has left Cate homeless and broke.
Yet Folly Beach holds more than just memories. Once upon a time another woman found unexpected comfort within its welcoming arms. An artist, writer, and sometime colleague of the revered George Gershwin, Dorothy Heyward enjoyed the greatest moments of her life at Folly with her beloved husband, DuBose. And though the Heywards are long gone, their passion and spirit linger in every sunset and ocean breeze.
And for Cate, Folly holds the promise of unexpected fulfillment . . . of the woman she’s always wanted --- and is finally ready --- to become.
