Description
Following the success of IF YOU ONLY KNEW and ON SECOND THOUGHT comes the highly anticipated new novel by New York Times bestselling author Higgins; a funny and bittersweet story of a woman who returns to her hometown after a decade's absence hoping to resuscitate her relationship with her family, only to discover that her homecoming is not as welcome as she had imagined. It's been over a decade since Nora left her hometown of Scupper Island, Maine, and very seldom looked back. She's carved out a successful life in Boston where no one knows her as the awkward girl with the delinquent sister and the dad who left, but a not-as-dramatic-as-it-sounds brush with death has her taking stock of her life. Inspired to reconnect with her prickly mother and snarky teenage niece, Nora returns home for the summer, where she's forced to face the people she's spent the last ten years trying to avoid, and where some revelations about her family could either heal her, or send her scrambling back to Boston on the next ferry.

        February 5, 2018
        The journey to recovery is filled with love, loss, memories in the rewarding latest from bestseller Higgins (On Second Thought). Dr. Nora Stuart is broken: her clavicle literally after a recent accident and her heart figuratively after a breakup. She travels home to Scupper Island, Maine, to recuperate and reclaim the family she once loved. She’s determined to reestablish her relationship with her bitter, distant sister, Lily; bond with her angsty teenage niece, Poe; have meaningful conversations with her mother; and maybe find out where her father disappeared to when he left them. Nora’s path is as much about healing others as it is about healing herself. As she connects with her family, Nora also finds out the truth of why her father left. The dialogue is witty and the prose is smooth, and readers will be delighted to follow Nora’s discovery of new love with her old friend Sully. The ending wraps up neatly, though perhaps a little too quickly. Higgins’s fans will no doubt enjoy this moving take on starting over and repairing past hurts.

      • content: The first-person point of view, coupled with a skilled narration by Xe Sands, immediately draws the listener into Nora Stuart's story. Nora, a doctor, is hit by a van, and as she lies in the ER thinking she's dying, she overhears her boyfriend hit on another woman. This sends her home to Scupper Island, Maine, to recuperate and reconnect with her mother and niece. Sands smartly voices the Maine accent of Nora's mother and other islanders. Sands has the listener laughing as she brings the comedic elements alive and pulls their heartstrings at the sad moments, both of which give the story rich dimension. Because of the skillful narration, listeners themselves will want to hop the ferry to Scupper Island, along with Nora. S.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award © AudioFile 2018, Portland, Maine
