Description

Three women—two sisters and their aunt—and the cliff house on the northern California coast that served as a beacon to them all…

After the death of their mother, sisters Daisy and Beatriz Davenport found a home with their aunt Stella in the beautiful and welcoming town of Cape Sanctuary. They never knew all the dreams that Stella sacrificed to ensure they had everything they’d ever need. Now, with Daisy and Bea grown, it’s time for Stella to reveal the secret she’s been keeping from them—a secret that will change their family forever.

Bea thought she’d sown all her wild oats when she got pregnant far too young. The marriage that followed was rocky and not destined to last, but it gave Bea her wonderful, mature, now eleven-year-old daughter, Marisol. But just as she’s beginning to pursue a new love with an old friend, Bea’s ex-husband resurfaces and turns their lives completely upside down.

Then there’s Daisy—sensible, rational, financially prudent Daisy. She’s never taken a risk in her life—until she meets a man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about life, love and the power of taking chances.

In this heartwarming story, Stella, Bea and Daisy will discover that the path to true happiness is filled with twists and turns, but love always leads them back home.

    I’ve read several RaeAnne Thayer books & have thoroughly enjoyed each & every one. She writs characters that you truly want to spend time with & hate to let go of when the book ends. Her plots are all so different from all of the others, no cookie cutter books to be found. Every time I buy another of her books, it immediately goes to the top of my list for the book I read next. I highly recommend this book & all of her books!

    This is a wonderful novel about the secrets and heartaches of two sisters, Bea and Daisy, and their aunt Stella. Cape Sanctuary is located on the northern coast of California, with cliffs that provide stunning views of the ocean. Bea’s 11-year-old daughter, Marisol, is ecstatic when her superstar father, Cruz, has returned to one of is homes for an extended visit. He wants Bea back in his life, who he still considers to be his wife, even though they have been divorced for years. Gabe, Shane, and Ed with his daughter Rowan play a big part in this story, changing everything for Bea, Daisy, and Stella. All of the secrets and the way their lives intertwine with each other are beautifully woven together. Each woman tries to weigh keeping silent about things that could be hurtful to each other against the truth. In deciding how their future will be lived while being highly influenced by their past, each must learn to trust in others. I loved this novel!
