Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Iona and Audrey emit smoke signals when they need help, but sometimes it takes more than water to put them out.Iona thought she would sip mimosas while relaxing on a beach in retirement, but instead she suffers from loneliness as vacation brochures collect dust. Even worse, she feels forgotten by her daughter.Iona's daughter, Audrey, serially dates emotionally scarred men and buries herself in work to avoid the pain of rejection. Audrey feels like an abject failure when it comes to relationships.The relationship dynamic between the two shifts when a disastrous fire threatens Iona's home. Audrey's longing for motherhood is funneled into caring for Iona. Iona courageously joins the Senior Center where she meets Maxine who sells fresh eggs at farmer's markets by day and hosts parties at night.As the relationship between Audrey and Iona disintegrates like burning wood, they discover that living with each other in adulthood presents numerous challenges and adaptations. One thing's for sure, they'll need to get better at putting out fires.
