No Reservations: A Novel of Friendship

"Warm and wise--a feel good story. Sheryl Lister's No Reservations is a heartfelt tribute to sisterhood and found-family. The feelings linger long after the last page." --Vanessa Riley, Award-winning author of Island Queen and Queen of Exiles

True friendship never ends.

Best friends forever. That's the vow Joy, Diane, Rochelle and Yvette made when they were children, and even in their mid-thirties, the friends have always been there for each other--through the highs and lows of life and love. Until forever comes up against a terminal cancer diagnosis. Nothing could have prepared them for what life would look like when four became three.

But Yvette was prepared.

Her final gift to her girls is an all-expenses-paid trip to Jamaica like they had always talked about but kept putting off as life got in the way.

The Jamaican getaway seems to come at the perfect time as the remaining friends deal with their grief, dashed hopes, and unexpected relationship drama. Sick of putting her dreams to open a spa on hold, not to mention her husband's lack of support, Joy decides she's moving forward with her new business--with or without him. The thunderous ticking of Diane's biological clock has her wondering if her desire to have a baby will ever come true, and her husband's bizarre behavior has her questioning if he's still on board. And after witnessing her friends' imploding relationships, single mother Rochelle is content to do life on her own, but her heart doesn't seem to get the memo when a new man unexpectedly enters the picture.

Guided by Yvette's spirit, the friends must lean on each other now more than ever before as they learn to navigate their new normal, take unexpected risks and live life with no reservations.

Fans of Jane Green, Nancy Thayer, and Kimberla Lawson Roby will laugh, cry and cheer for the best friends in No Reservations, a captivating story of enduring friendships tested by life's harshest trials--including cancer, infertility, infidelity, and the challenges of pursuing dreams. This standalone novel delivers an engaging experience perfect for book clubs, diving deep into themes of grief, resilience, the power of sisterhood, and the courage it takes to live life with no reservations.

"At times both deeply emotional and heartwarmingly funny, No Reservations encapsulates the beauty of the unbreakable bond of enduring friendships and true sisterhood." --Farrah Rochon, New York Times bestselling author of The Hookup Plan
