What reviewers say about Peggy Webb..… "The Long Distance Mother is absolutely the best you've done." Laura Cartwright
THE LONG DISTANCE MOTHER
"This very special trilogy strikes at the heart of what it means to ber a mother....A beautifully
written anthology that will resonate across generations... Library Journal,
"Webb's latest work of genius continues to feed the spirit with wisdom, provide a large slice of humor and
connect with the soul. The women in the story are semi-traditional, with a touch of daring spirit and resonant
Southern culture..Powerful, piognant and piercing."Kristin Ramsdell California State University Sandra Fortune, Ed.D. Amazon.com “Creating firm and forceful friendships in her books may well be the author’s greatest gift…As in all Webb’s literary offerings, Late Bloomers is brimful of tears and laughter, a bunch of freewheeling fun and a few life lessons scattered in for good measure….Best of all, it’s another good read from the prolific Webb.” Leslie Criss,
“Webb has an uncanny ability to create characters that get under the skin and into the heart…Perhaps her greatest gift
as a writer is creating female friendships of an intense depth…As I closed the book…I thought of a quote by the late,
great Selma Diamond. It’s exactly how I feel about Confessions of a Not-So-Dead Libido. ‘I laughed. I cried. It became
a part of me.’”Daily Journal Leslie Criss,
An excellent voice, Southern style, and humor make Late Bloomers (4.5) by Peggy Webb a joy to read. Emily Jones is a
widow who hasn't adjusted to her new, unprotected life. Her husband took care of real life for them both, and she isn't
sure what to do without him. Delta Jordan, her best friend and cousin, has issues with men because her father deserted
her family when she was young. A travel writer, Delta persuades Emily to come with her to Italy. There, Emily learns to
live and Delta learns to bloom. Wonderful characters, story and heart make this a winner. Delta's new love is especially
wonderful.Daily Journal Page Traynor,

Flying Lessons is a real good story written in an authentic voice in a very familiar setting....This author is one to
keep your eyes open for."Romantic Times The Mississippi Press,

"If you can buy only one book this year, make it Driving Me Crazy by Peggy Webb.
Part of the book's charm is that Peggy has taken on a weighty subject - coping with
the declining heath of a beloved mother --and turned it into a triumph of the human spirit." Amazon.com Laura Cartwright
"Every once in a while, you read a story that you know will stay with you for a long,
long time. For me, this is that book. A little bit Driving Miss Daisy, a little bit
Fried Green Tomatoes, and a small dash of Saturday Night Live make this one of the
most heartfelt-and funny- books that I've read recently. If you haven't read a book
in Harlequin's new NEXT line, you need to. And you need to start with
DRIVING ME CRAZY...This is a definite winner."The Banner Independent 5 Ribbon
"Dramatic, pulsing with emotion and multi-textured. You will not soon forget this book."Jen Wardrip Romance Junkies From a Distance
"Peggy Webb has penned a superb tale of betrayal and obsession with characters so real they seem to
jump from the pages.""Affaire de Coeur" From a Distance
"Before you start reading Peggy Webb's story….please arm yourself with a fresh box of tissue….Ms.
Webb addresses tragedy and anguish, hope and courage and love…This story is framed by deep,
human emotion that any parent will immediately recognize as the fearsome truth. But the reward of
seeing both of the central characters and the supporting characters become living, breathing people
in front of your eyes is worth the investment in tissues, and certainly in Where Dolphins Go.
Congratulations, Ms. Webb, on writing an extremely rare and fine new book!""I'll Take Romance" Where Dolphins Go
"The latter part of the book deepens the initial attraction into love with a rare lyric beauty that
catches at the heart. Ms. Webb is an extremely perceptive writer, capturing every nuance….in great
detail."Linda O'Connor "The Time Machine" A Book Rack Publication Duplicity
