How am I supposed to stay on my carefully planned path when my true biological heritage presents its ugly head—ahem, heads. And when the messengers of my so-called destiny happen to be two of the most incredibly hot and irritating males on the planet, I’m left fantasizing about my previously boring life. Am I supposed to believe that my duty is to seek vengeance? Or to grant mercy to the offender? And how on earth am I qualified to make these decisions? I’m bound to make mistakes along the way, but keep your fingers crossed that I don’t inadvertently send the world to Tartarus in a hand basket.

When she started working with the aged more than forty years ago, Ann Burack-Weiss began storing the knowledge and skills she thought would help when she got old herself. It was not until she hit her mid-seventies that she realized she had packed sneakers to climb Mount Everest, not anticipating the crevices and chasms that constitute the rocky terrain of old age. The professional gerontological and social work literature offered little help, so she turned to the late-life works of beloved women authors who had bravely climbed the mountain and sent back news from the summit. Maya Angelou, Colette, Simone de Beauvoir, Joan Didion, Marguerite Duras, M. F. K. Fisher, Doris Lessing, Mary Oliver, Adrienne Rich, May Sarton, and Florida Scott-Maxwell were among the many guides she turned to for inspiration. In The Lioness in Winter, Burack-Weiss blends an analysis of key writings from these and other famed women authors with her own wisdom to create an essential companion for older women and those who care for them. She fearlessly examines issues such as living with loss, finding comfort and joy in unexpected places, and facing disability and death. This book is filled with powerful passages from women who turned their experiences of aging into art, and Burack-Weiss ties their words to her own struggles and epiphanies, framing their collective observations with key insights from social work practice.

If someone leaves without a goodbye, can they expect to be welcomed back with an open heart? Mackenzie O’Brien made the biggest mistake of her life when she left her husband on the eve of their sixth anniversary. But when she returns to Healing Springs to beg for forgiveness, she’s met with a man who is harder and angrier than the sweet, kind man she left behind. This new version of her husband has no problem humiliating her and casting her aside. She won’t go so easily this time… Gabe never imagined his loving wife would leave him like an unwanted kitten, but he’s been dealing with the abandonment every day. When she shows up at his door—the door she slammed behind her—expecting him to take her back, his first temptation is to slam the door right back at her. He’s done his best to harden his heart, but having her and her vulnerability in close proximity messes with his head… and other parts. When fate laughs in their faces and thrusts them together, neither Mackenzie nor Gabe knows how to navigate the muddied waters. Is the love they once shared strong enough to get them through the lowest of marital woes? And if they manage to brave this storm, will they be able to settle the undercurrents that continuously threaten to tear them apart?
