Where the Grass Grows Blue

Where The Grass Grows Blue is one woman’s journey to either accept her troubled past by embracing the power of forgiveness, or risk losing a second chance at love in a small Kentucky town.

Penny Crenshaw’s divorce and her husband’s swift remarriage to a much younger woman have been hot topics around Atlanta’s social circles. After a year of enduring the cruel gossip, Penny leaps from the frying pan into the fire by heading back to Kentucky to settle her grandmother’s estate.

Reluctantly, Penny travels to her hometown of Camden, knowing she will be stirring up all the ghosts from her turbulent childhood. But not all her problems stem from a dysfunctional family. One of Penny’s greatest sources of pain lives just down the street: Bradley Hitchens, her childhood best friend, the keeper of her darkest secrets, and the boy who shattered her heart.

As Penny struggles with sorting through her grandmother’s house and her own memories, a colorful group of friends drifts back into her life, reminding her of the unique warmth, fellowship, and romance that only the Bluegrass State can provide. Now that fate has forced Penny back, she must either let go of the scars of her past or risk losing a second chance at love. Can she learn to live an unbridled life?

Great Debut Story

I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book, following along with Penny and the other cast of colorful characters. I was hooked from the beginning and kept wanting to know what would happen next. Penny's journey from childhood to discovering how freeing forgiveness can be is a strong lesson for us all. Having grown up in a smaller southern town myself, I thought the narration and descriptions were very authentic. Congratulations to Hope Gibbs on this debut novel, and I look forward to many more to come.

Rushed ending

This book held my attention, and I really liked the story. The author took time to build the characters and went into a lot of detail when describing situations. But the ending storyline was disappointing because it seemed rushed . I needed more information about how everything worked out.
