Description
A poignant novel about a single mother who inherits a beautiful beach house with an unexpected inhabitant. Maggie Sheets has been struggling to make ends meet as a single parent, but everything changes when she receives a staggering inheritance from a former employer. The catch is that the house comes with an elderly woman named Edith, who suffers from Alzheimer's disease. Edith remembers her past and the pain it brings, while Maggie is determined to navigate their unlikely arrangement. As summer days wane, they form a tentative bond, and Edith shares a secret she's kept hidden for decades. This launchpad for a new life might just lead them both to what they're searching for. A heartwarming story about the power of human connection and the complexities of family relationships.
