Shoot for the Moon, Hope for the Best

By: Bourne, Candy

Emma Claire Parker figures her life is mixed about right. She has a six-year-old daughter who's a little too big for her britches, a waitressing job at Mable's, a mama one minute away, a best friend who knows entirely too much, and an aunt who has spent years improving the English language whether it needed improving or not.

Then life starts changing the recipe.

When the owner of Mable's decides to sell, Emma suddenly has to figure out what comes next after seven years of building her life around the little diner. Add old faces, new possibilities, family opinions nobody asked for, questionable decisions, and the everyday chaos of raising Macie Grace, and the comfortable life Emma thought she had figured out starts looking a whole lot different.

Emma is certainly not looking for love, but that doesn't mean it won't come find her.

Set in small-town Oklahoma, Shoot for the Moon, Hope for the Best is a warm, funny story about motherhood, family, friendship, change, second chances, and finding the courage to go after what you want even when you have no idea exactly how it will turn out.

Because sometimes all you can do is take the chance, believe something good might come of it, and shoot for the moon, hope for the best.
