âA journey well worth taking.â âAbby Jimenez, New York Times bestselling author
The New York Times bestselling author delivers an emotional, intimate work of womenâs fiction centered on a young widow, and filled with reflections on love, loss, and finding hope, and even joy, after heartacheâfor fans of Josie Silver, Sophie Cousens, and Rebecca Serle.
Â
No marriage is perfect, but in Rachel Ackermannâs eyes, hers came close. From the very start, her love story with Josh was wonderful. Thereâs just one problem with stories: no matter how great the beginning, thereâs also an ending. For Rachel and Josh, it comes suddenly and far too soon.
Â
Trying to move on without Josh feels impossible, and itâs tempting for Rachel to cocoon in the dark with the reminders of the life they should have shared. But her quirky, sometimes exasperating family wonât let that happen. And as Rachel is nudged back into the sunlight, she uncovers a trove of surprising secretsâand an opportunity to save a family legacyâand maybe save herself in the process . . .
But it will mean forging an unexpected alliance with her late fatherâs unpopular young âtrophy wife.â And then thereâs Racheâs renewed bond with Campbell Scott, the boy who another lifetime ago broke her heart. Just when Rachel thinks sheâs got everything figured out, she learns that in between beginnings and endings lie new chapters . . .
âThrough a heartbreaking exploration of love, loss, and grief, Finz weaves together a beautiful story of healing, hope, and unexpected second chances.â âAmy Pine, USA Today bestselling author Â
