Finding Fran

So much for her author brand, built on the premise that women in their fifties and beyond can still find love and happiness. Her solution? A week at a northern California bed-and-breakfast, where she hopes to overcome a bad case of writer's block in time to meet her next deadline while deciding how to handle her relationship issue. As she struggles to resolve both situations, Fran finds encouragement and support not only from her long-time friend Diana, but also from unlikely sources: the elderly gun-toting woman who owns the B&B and is facing challenges of her own, the book store manager who offers a delicate critique of Fran's previous books, and the stylists at the salon who give Fran a new look to go with her growing sense of the woman she wants to be and the life she wants to live personally and professionally.
