Our main protagonist, Robyn, is at a crossroads in her life and yet no one else in her life seems to see that she could possibly have anything other than their issues to deal with. In this book, she really brings forth the family drama and I loved it. One thing I absolutely love about Susan Mallery is her ability to write genuine, relatable characters. This is the third stand-alone I’ve read and I find these to be just as enjoyable as her other books. I’ve been reading Susan Mallery’s books for years, having read most of her series and just loved them. All she has to do is muster the courage to take a chance on herself. The more time Robyn spends with free-spirited Lillian, the more she sees the appeal in taking chances – on dreams, on love, on family. Somehow, their baggage doesn’t feel as heavy in the sun-drenched, mishmash mansion. One by one, everyone she left behind follows her across the country. But how’s she supposed to think when her daughter has become the most demanding bride ever, her son won’t even consider college, her best friend is on the brink of marital disaster and her ex is making a monumentally bad decision that could bring everything crashing down on Robyn’s head? So when her great-aunt Lillian invites her to Santa Barbara for the summer, Robyn hops on the first plane.īut it’s hard to run away when you’re the heart of the family. She nurtured her family and neglected herself. With her divorce settlement about to run out and a mortgage she can’t afford, Robyn Caldwell needs a plan for her future. One woman discovers the beauty in chaos in this poignant and heartwarming story about the threads that hold family together from number one New York Times best-selling author Susan Mallery.
