When Jo followed her ambitions to New York City, she never thought her career in journalism would come crashing down, leaving her struggling to stay afloat in a gig economy as a prep cook and secret food blogger. <p/>Meg appears to have the life she always planned--the handsome husband, the adorable toddlers, the house in a charming subdivision. But sometimes getting everything you've ever wanted isn't all it's cracked up to be. <p/>When their mother's illness forces the sisters home to North Carolina for the holidays, they'll rediscover what really matters. <p/>One thing's for sure--they'll need the strength of family and the power of sisterhood to remake their lives and reimagine their dreams. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for <i>Meg and Jo</i></b> <p/>This family drama offers sharp insights into the tough choices women make.--<i>People </i>Magazine <p/>"I don't know of another author who could do justice to <i>Little Women</i>.
