Throughout the book, there is an ongoing dialogue between Ellen and Pat that is sure to resonate with every woman who cherishes her female friends. Maybe it's the logical outcome for two writing friends. Having someone to share worries and secrets as well as the good stuff of life. Someone who needs you in return. Somewhere in the meaning of the word 'trust' is the assumption that a friend has your best interest at heart.
Friends can be the collaborators, the instigators who make change possible.
They are often the ones who urge us to take a leap, who jump with us or help us scramble back up the other side. It's the given, the absolute assumption of friendship. It can be serious or funny, painful or exuberant, intense or joyous.
