Dorothy and Wilma are business partners, managing a wedding and catering business. The two ladies remain friends after they marry their husbands, Malcolm Melrose and Joshua LeBoun who work together as police officers. Time passes, and two decades later, the long friendship between both families is strengthened after Annette Melrose marries Gideon LeBoun, they are united as one big happy family. The novel is set on the island of St Vincent and it accurately reflects Caribbean culture. St Vincent is one of the Windward Islands; it lies between the Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. The island's north-easterly coastline is surrounded by the rough and rugged Atlantic Ocean, and the Caribbean Sea is on its north-westerly coastline with stunning beaches. St Vincent is a volcanic island and the shores are covered with black sands, and the remains of many large rocks along rivers and streams are evidence of previous volcanic eruptions. This mountainous island is truly a tropical paradise. This book captures a range of emotions from happy, comical, entertaining, and yet it is true to life with a tinge of sadness.
