Synopsis
She's running from the most embarrassing moment of her life when she finds herself smack dab in the middle of an island full of misfit old people. Danielle Wright has had an illustrious career as a nurse, but when the unthinkable happens, she has nowhere to run to get out of the gaze of prying eyes and judgmental people. When she takes a job as the nurse for Wisteria Island, she has no clue what she's agreeing to. The brainchild of a wealthy entrepreneur, Wisteria Island is home to a cast of quirky, and often difficult, characters. When Danielle finds out why the previous eight nurses have all quit within days, she has to decide whether to stick it out or go back to a life she no longer recognizes. Wisteria Island is a standalone novel by USA Today bestselling author, Rachel Hanna. If you love southern women's fiction and lots of laughs, you'll enjoy this one!
