FLIES ON THE BUTTER

Southern Living,  May 2007  by Dorman-Hickson, Nancy

FLIES ON THE BUTTER BY DENISE HILDRETH (WESTBOW PRESS, $14.99)

Washington, D.C., lobbyist Rose Fletcher dreads the destination more than the long drive when she heads home to Mullins, South Carolina. She loves most of her family, but an angry rift between her and her mother still festers. In fact, that long-ago hurt dictates the woman Rose has become-powerful, in control, and emotionless. She strives for perfection in all things.

Alas, something's gone wrong with her "perfect" life. Her marriage is in jeopardy, and the bill she's lobbied hard for is in doubt. Worse, Rose is beginning to understand her moral lapses and imperfections.

She's forced to consider her choices, especially when encounter after encounter with strangers leads all of them to feel as if they need to pray for her. As she travels back to the past and toward her less-than-perfect future, the journey turns into nothing less than a spiritual odyssey of inner reckoning.
