Husband for Patricia

The agenda of the weekly meeting of the Widows’ Association has one goal: Find a husband for Patricia Potter. The other members—Amy, Amanda, and Cecily—can’t stand Patricia’s moaning about mystery illnesses and the loss of her beloved husband, Henry Potter. The only way to resolve Patricia’s misery is to find someone for her to marry, thus removing her from the Widows’ Association membership.

The cunning ladies craft a plan to travel to the seaside resort town of Pebbles-on-Beach, where they hope the selection of available men is plentiful, and they each book themselves into separate boarding houses, all under the alias of Mrs. Patricia Potter. Casting a wide net in hopes of catching a prized candidate, the Patricias find three suitable suitors who might just fit the bill!

What ensues is a comedic romp involving mistaken identities, theft, and double-dealings. Husband for Patricia is a lighthearted tale of finding love after loss that is sure to delight readers young and old alike.
