Vintage: A Novel

“A colorful and charming novel, filled with tenderness for women and friendship . . . every page reads like a literary wardrobe makeover.” —Susanna Daniel, award-winning author of Stiltsville

At Hourglass Vintage in Madison, Wisconsin, every item in the boutique has a story to tell . . . and so do the women who are drawn there.

Violet Turner has always dreamed of owning a shop like Hourglass Vintage. When she is faced with the possibility of losing it, she realizes that, as much as she wants to, she cannot save it alone.

Eighteen-year-old April Morgan is nearly five months along in an unplanned pregnancy when her hasty engagement is broken. When she returns the perfect 1950s wedding dress, she discovers unexpected possibilities and friends who won’t let her give up on her dreams.

Betrayed by her husband, Amithi Singh begins selling off her old clothes, remnants of her past life. After decades of housekeeping and parenting a daughter who rejects her traditional ways, she fears she has nothing more ahead for her.

An engaging story that beautifully captures the essence of women’s friendship and love, Vintage is a charming tale of possibility, of finding renewal and hope when we least expect it.

“A wonderfully engaging story complete with the true essence of sisterhood.” —Stephanie Evanovich, New York Times–bestselling author

“Swap the vintage-clothing device for knitting, and you have Kate Jacobs’ The Friday Night Knitting Club, which means Gloss should have a built-in fan base for this book-club-worthy story of redemption, healing, and love.” —Booklist

“An engaging story filled with plucky characters and second acts.” —Library Journal
