Description

A poignant story of two estranged sisters from the New York Times bestselling author of the Tradd Street novels. At twenty Cassie Madison left her hometown of Walton, Georgia, for New York City, where she has reinvented herself-from losing herself in her career to squashing her accent. But one night a single phone call brings back everything she's tried to forget. She hasn't spoken to her sister since Harriet stole Cassie's fiance and married him. But now Harriet's on the line with news that their father is dying. As she makes the trip back, the only thing that frightens Cassie more than losing her father is seeing Harriet and the family that should have been hers. But she can't help loving her nephews and nieces any more than she can help feeling at home again in Walton. As she fights a surprising reaction to a forgotten friend, and faces an unexpected threat to the family she'd once left behind, Cassie comes to realize that moving on doesn't always mean moving away from who you are.

There is a rhythm to the writing of Karen White. It has a pace, a beat, a cadence that is all its own.The Huffington Post

Whites dizzying carousel of a plot keeps those pages turning, so much so that the book can [be]and should befinished in one afternoon, interrupted only by a glass of sweet iced tea.Oprah.com

White captures the true essence of Charleston by intertwining the sights and smells of the historic town with an enchanting story filled with ghostly spirits, love, and forgivenessa once-in-a-lifetime series.Fresh Fiction

This is storytelling of the highest order: the kind of book that leaves you both deeply satisfied and aching for more.Beatriz Williams,New York Timesbestselling author ofTiny Little Thing

Readers will find Whites prose an uplifting experience as she is a truly gifted storyteller.Las Vegas Review-Journal
