Synopsis

In idyllic Tucker, Vermont, life moves lazily along for Paige Pfeiffer. When her best friend’s suicide shatters her complacency, however, Paige is sent reeling and her comfortable world is gone for good. As she struggles with her grief, she is also forced to care for the friend’s adopted baby daughter. Her only hope is that some sense of normalcy will return in time.

 

But with tragedy also comes unexpected joys. A blossoming romance with the head of a private school fills Paige’s faltering life with hope and offers her a love that she never thought possible. She explores how one can find meaning in life, even in the aftermath of death.

 

Barbara Delinsky turns her storytelling skills to this inspiring tale of loss, love, and growth. Listeners can relate as the everyday people in her stories work to overcome seemingly impossible challenges, while finding strength in family, friends, and new life and love.

This is the third book I have read by Barbara Delinsky and so far it is my favorite. The plot kept moving and was believable. I enjoyed getting a glimpse into so many different lives.

Goodreads review by Judy on June 16, 2018

This is a tender story about taking risks in life as opposed to staying in the safe lane. It encompasses a tragic suicide, a mass causality when a theater balcony collapses during a rock concert, and an unjust accusation of rape. It was fast moving with lots of characters. It is a good story.......more
