Meg and Don Duncan are two lawyers from Washington, DC. But when Meg's beloved Uncle Win dies unexepectedly, and leaves them his houseboat in Key West, the Duncans, intrigued, decide to pack up their careers and move there. In Key West, they meet several exciting new people, including a little girl, Calliope, whose wealthy parents don't seem to pay much attention to her. Don is happy to have retired from the law, and begins to develop a new interest in local horticulture. But Meg misses being a lawyer, and wonders how she can ease back into being an attorney with their new lifestyle. Also, Calliope's presence awakens the childless Duncans to the possibility of becoming parents themselves. How will they resolve their issues?I really enjoyed this book! The colorful background of Key West added a special element to this story. It makes me want to visit this city. Although I thought the dialogue was a little slick in places, ("Right on the bell for snacktime"), I still think this book has a lot going for it. Highly recommended.
