Feeling Alone While Surrounded by Loved Ones...

Artist Josey Duprey is a victim of breast cancer. A proud woman, she decides to deal with it alone and doesn't tell her lover, Ellen. Ellen has proposed they move in together and is confused at Josey's keeping distance between them. To confuse things even more, Josey's niece Annie comes to live with her after having problems at school. This is a perfect excuse for Josey to keep Ellen at arm's length. Annie doesn't want to live with her aunt, but has been forced to by her mother. Over the summer, she falls for the daughter of the local hardware store owner and finds out about the pains that come with a first "love." This was my first Calhoun read. It was well-written and dealt eloquently with a painful subject (i.e., breast cancer). Cheers to the author for being brave enough to combine this with a true love story. Although not a "must read" book, 'Woman in the Mirror' is certainly one I would recommend without hesitation.
