Blurb:
Sisters Gracie and Juliette Bennett, once the best of friends, have
grown apart over the years, each following her own life’s path. But with the
passing of their beloved grandmother Mimi their paths intertwine in the most
unexpected and peculiar way.
Gracie and Juliette are set to inherit Mimi’s house—the charming Santa Barbara Craftsman, a family heirloom three generations old. But there’s a catch. In order to inherit their home away from home the sisters must live at 1402 Laguna Lane for one year…together.
Now under one roof, Gracie and Juliette have a chance to reexamine their relationship and confront their pasts. Over the course of the trying year ahead they will learn that Mimi’s clever plan is about more than preserving a piece of family history.
But will they overcome their differences, perhaps even become the kinds of friends only sisters can be? Loyalties will be tested and secrets revealed. And in their darkest hours Gracie and Juliette will have to decide if a sister’s love is what they need to get through the year. If a unique friendship between sisters is what they’ve needed all along.

3. When I’m not writing
women’s fiction, chick lit, and romance novels I blog about wedding floral
design. Two girly-girl jobs for a very girly-girl.
4. Speaking of wedding
florists, the brilliant and super-sweet florist and designer Preston Bailey was
one of my very first readers and reviewers. I’m still pinching myself.
5. Five Feel-Good,

9. I’ve been an
American expat in Germany for 5 years and this summer my husband and I are
moving into a house we’ve been building for the past year in Berlin. I think
we’re here for the long haul… Sorry, Mom!
10. I say orange
when I mean yellow and yellow when I mean orange. (Anyone
else have this problem? It’s a thing, isn’t it?) And everyone who’s ever heard
me say orange says I say it funny. Uh, what??
11. Currently I can’t
get enough of re-watching Lost, shopping for unique hanging lamps, the
album Retisent by Cambio Sun, and finding out via social media all the coolness
that is Colleen Hoover’s The Bookworm Box. (<—Check it out! It’s awesome.
She’s awesome. Her books are awesome. It’s all just awesomeness.)
12. Every novel I write
is pure fiction, but the seed that starts it all is something very real. I
think that’s quite common for many writers. Just what the real something is is the
greatest secret…
Author
bio:
Savannah Page is an
American expatriate living in Berlin, Germany. Savannah is the author of the
brand new stand-alone novel A Sister’s Place, and the seven-novel When Girlfriends collection, heartfelt women’s fiction that
celebrates friendship, love, and life sprinkled with drama and humor. She
is also the author of her premier book—a personal / travel narrative, Bumped to Berlin.
Savannah, a native
southern Californian, studied at The University of Tulsa in Oklahoma where she earned Bachelor degrees in English
Literature and German, and a Master’s degree in English Literature. There she
further honed her writing skills and explored her growing interest in German
studies. During her senior year she studied abroad in Germany, and after a
visit to the country’s capital she made a promise that one day she would call
Berlin home. (Because every girl must have a dream.) She also told her English
professors that her goals for her writing career involved either writing for a
German soap opera or All My Children, or becoming a chick lit author.
Today, Savannah
resides in Berlin (because dreams really can come true!), with her German husband,
where she enjoys writing, reading, practicing Pilates, and living the life of
an expat. When Savannah isn’t writing…she’s writing. She splits her time in her
home office working on her latest novel and blog, and professionally blogging
for wedding vendors. She is the owner of a small blogging business that allows
her to combine her experience in the wedding industry with her passion for
writing.
Recently, Savannah
has published her ninth book, a women’s fiction novel about sisterhood and
friendship (A Sister’s Place). If you’re curious about what else is
coming from the desk of Savannah Page, you can subscribe to her Blog feed or

readers!
