About the author: Daphne Simpkins is a Southern woman who writes about a variety of subjects and often on the secret lives of church ladies.
If you like spending time with people who are ordinary but extraordinarily hopeful, then you\'ll love this story.
Need hope? Need a friend? Mildred Budge is a very good friend.
That hope has a name, and Mildred Budge knows it.
This is the first novel in the series about Mildred Budge and her friends-just ordinary people trying to live out an extraordinary hope available to anyone who realizes what kind of help he or she really needs.
Mildred Budge and her friends are just people trying to live inside the faith released from heaven through the One who didn\'t say no.
But they aren\'t fools.
Fran said when Mildred finally felt the regretful effects of that no, We\'re all of us such fools.
That was the moment when Mildred had to say a final \'no.\' Only her best friend Fran understood.
And finally, her would-be lover just asked her to say \'yes\' to him outright.
Found her in the church kitchen after a fellowship supper to aid in the clean-up.
He lodged himself near her at church.
Hugh didn\'t give up right away.
And she had been flattered but not interested-not in the way the widower wanted her to be interested.
But he was the most recent.
Hugh wasn\'t the first man to pursue her.
The only real \'no\' Mildred had said in recent history was to a man who loved her.
That\'s how Mildred ended up with strangers camped out in her spare bedroom while helping her friend Fran launch a new business at the antique emporium.
But when it comes right down to a friend needing a favor, she may say no first, but if someone really needs her-really needs her! -she always said yes.
Can resist drinking too much champagne.
A disciplined woman, Mildred can breathe the word no to a second cup of ice cream.
But retirement does not mean she can say no to a friend--not a friend in trouble.
A retired school teacher, Mildred Budge just wants to live a quiet life in her hometown of Cloverdale.
After reading this first novel in the series, fans of Southern fiction write, I want to live next door to Mildred Budge.
