Chancey Moves - Kay Shostak Dew

Tenth book in this popular Southern Fiction series set in the small North Georgia town of Chancey.

Spring is in the Chancey air-almost.

Spring means planning. Planning for gardens, weddings, babies, and spring break. But first comes the North Georgia book festival with a surprise author, who is celebrated by everyone.

Well, everyone that hasn't read her books.

Carolina is busy with the book festival but she can't help notice so many of the lives around her are veering off course. She's sure she knows how they can all be happy, but they don't seem to want her help. If only she could move them around the board like the pieces on the new chess board in Blooming Books.

Savannah, like her mom, is having trouble getting all the pieces to her elaborate spring break plans to stay in place. While Missus finds being Mayor doesn't mean everyone sticks to her plan, even if she puts it in a proclamation.

They're all wondering if Laney might have the best idea. "Sometimes the only way to win is to flip the board in the air and stomp off."
