Description

Everyone knows that Addie Fullbright can't keep a secret. Yet, twelve years ago, as her best friend lay dying, she entrusted Addie with a devastating truth. One so shattering that Addie felt she had to leave her hometown of Starlight, Alabama, to keep from revealing it. But when her beloved aunt gets a shocking diagnosis and asks her to come back to Starlight to help run the family bakery, Addie knows it is time to go home again. Tessa Jane Wingrove-Fullbright feels like she's failing. She's always been able to see the lighter side of life but lately darkness has descended. When she's called back to Starlight to help her aunt, she's barely holding herself together and fears she'll never find her way back to who she used to be. Under the bright side of the stars, Addie and Tessa Jane come to see that magic can be found in trusting yourself, that falling apart is simply a chance to rise up again, stronger than ever, and that the heart usually knows the best path through the darkness. A Certain Kind of Starlight is a lyrical, heartwarming story of family, growth, and magic from the USA Today bestselling author of Midnight at the Blackbird Caf, Heather Webber.
