Sage lives with her flighty mother, who is always dropping one dream to chase another. When her mother packs her off to her great-aunts’ house in Maine for the summer, Sage worries she’s being dropped, too. But she finds warmth, friendship, and a real sense of belonging at Heron Cove. She uncovers a painful family history, but also the strength to help her relatives heal. She also realizes you do not have to give up one home to claim another. This is a tender, compassionate look at one girl’s pivotal summer—and at the powerful love that binds families everywhere.

Written with quiet intensity, this beautiful and spare novel examines what happens to Tessa's family after her fifteen-year-old brother is killed in a drunk-driving accident. Set adrift, Tessa is forced to find a way to keep going . . . even as her mother drifts further and further from her. Like Getting Near to Baby, this is an unstinting, compassionate, and deceptively plain story of a damaged family forging a way out of its grief.
