Bonus Time: Still Got It

“People think it’s all about the big moments. But it’s the fun that you remember. The friends. The joy. The unbridled bliss of doing silly things. Of being alive.”—Bonus Time: Still Got It

They’ve still got it! And they’re figuring out what to do with it.

Even if you’re lucky enough to move from Marshbury, Massachusetts into adjoining townhouses on a gorgeous semi-tropical island south of Savannah, Georgia with your two oldest and dearest friends, every single day of your bonus time might not turn out to be quite what you’d imagined.

Glenda, Harmony and Jan thought sharing a spot on their HOA Board as well as working as role players for FLETC, the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center, would fill their lives with intrigue and glamour. Instead they’re voting on mulch colors and pretending to grocery shop at Winn-Dixie.

But the guy Glenda is lowkey almost-dating might actually turn out to be a catch, even though Chickpea, her adorable chihuahua-pitbull rescue, isn’t so sure about him. And Jan is bound and determined to turn her front bedroom into a castle of creativity, if only she can get a handyman to call her back. Harmony’s husband still hasn’t headed south, and their daughter is scheming to take over the house they’re supposed to be selling up north.

They’re old enough to know that life is a series of ups and downs and bumps and changes and shifts and tweaks and surprises and resets and reboots and reinventions. It’s never too late to try something new, and friendship might be the most important thing of all.

Bonus Time: Still Got It, Book 2 of the Bonus Time series, is filled with humor and heart and some hilarious shenanigans and a bit of badassery. Plus lots of twists and turns and fun strolls down memory lane, as well some awesome hacks for rocking your own bonus time.
