Synopsis:  

The brilliant, brand-new novel from the TOP TEN bestselling author of 59 Memory Lane

New friends, new flame, new fun . . .

Kate dreamed of a happy marriage, a house full of children and a fulfilling teaching career. But after twenty-five years of married life and about to hit the big 5-0, it’s clear that her dreams haven’t quite come true. Then her husband leaves her for his golf partner, forcing Kate to take stock of what has become of her life.

Luckily, new friendship comes her way in the form of three feisty older women who take Kate under their wings, plus a new flame (could it be more . . .?) sparks with local divorced dad, Milo. As her big birthday approaches, Kate’s zest for life begins to return.

But opening herself up means making herself vulnerable to being hurt all over again . . .

Can it be true that life begins at fifty? And will Kate be brave enough to find happiness, and grab hold of it with both hands?

One (or more) Sentence Summary:  Life Begins at 50 is a perfect book for anyone who is about to turn 50 or has turned 50.  It is also a great read for any one who knows someone special celebrating those milestones. 

I don't think I could have ever put the connection between Kate and Milo together, but wow! All the characters in the book really made it a good read. Even though the main story revolves around Kate, every character has a part in the development of the story. My favorite has to be the village ladies and Kate's dear friend Sophie.

I did find Kate to be a huge push over in the beginning of the story.  I felt she let everyone, her parents, her brother, and especially her husband push her around and her husband belittled her throughout their marriage (the pieces we were able to see). I did not like Howard/Brad.  However, when Howard leaves Kate, she finds her footing and blossoms into an amazing women.  Always caring for others.....she finally takes care of herself and goes after what she wants in life. Lovely ending and I wish I had the as many sweet and caring friends in my life....Kate was very special to many people.  It was hard to see with Howard/Brad in her way.

Pick up a copy of Life Begins at 50 and enjoy a good read!  We all deserve a good book and time to read it!
