I have read several books by this author, and they never fail to leave me feelingwith that satisfying feeling of time well spent. This is a story of a young womanwho grew up in a dysfunctional family and has the scars to prove it.I think we can all relate to the fact that sometimes things happen in our livesthat have a lasting effect. Sometimes these are good things, other times not, butmost of us have had that sort of experience, I think?Reese Larkin has been affected perhaps more than most due to ongoing family issues.Although she has certainly moved on with her life, married and found herself to be mostlyhappy, the phrase you can never go home again resonates deeply with her. Until one day a goodfriend calls. A friend from her past.. from home. And she urges Reese to com do it, to finallycome home and face her past and hopefully put it to rest. Reese decides that maybe it is timeto do just that, and in the meantime keep her past from stealing the happiness from her present,little by little.This is by no means a funny, cheerful book. It is however a good story, with happymoments and sad. Like all of the books by this author that I have read, it is a wellworth reading, and if you are like me, it will be just the first of the books by thisauthor that you will read.
