Vera Stein Is Fine
From #1 New York Times bestseller Julie Murphy comes a heartfelt and hilarious tale of a woman who thinks life and love have passed her by until sheâs thrown into her grandmotherâs quirky world of octogenarian free love and gets a second chance with the one man she never expected to see again. Perhaps itâs never too late to play the opening creditsâŠ
Welcome to Starlight Palms, a favorite retirement facility among Hollywood actors and industry professionals tucked away just outside of sunny Palm Springs. Filled with forgotten scream queens, eccentric screenwriters, and heartthrobs of the past, it has a brand-new resident: Vera Stein, age forty.
Vera knows sheâs missed her chance at a life worthy of the silver screen, just like she missed her chance at ever finding true love. But Vera isnât one to take chances. Sheâs spent most of her adult years caretaking for her dying mother and her movie star bossâs ego. Now abruptly houseless and jobless, Vera has nowhere to land, so to grandmotherâs house we go!
The Starlight Palms Senior Living Center is midcentury Hollywood down to its pastel-painted bones. This desert gem isnât lacking in saucy plot twists (swinging seniors, anyone?) or a leading man: Elias Buckley, the on-site doctor and Veraâs former ill-fated college fling andâfor reasons that will stay in Vegasâlegally her ex-husband according to the state of Nevada.
Itâs not long before Vera falls into a job as the activities coordinator and under the spell of a certain smart-mouthed doctor⊠Suddenly all those empty years in LA look less like mistakes and a lot more like backstory. With a fresh start at her fingertips, Vera begins to see that even with all the detours sheâs taken, thereâs still a Hollywood ending (and maybe even a happily ever after) in sightâŠ
