Ellie Calvin is caught in a dying marriage, and she knows
this. With her beloved daughter away at college and a
growing gap between her and her husband — between her
reality and the woman she wants to be — she doesn’t quite
seem to fit into her own life.
But everything changes
after her controlling mother, Lillian, passes away. Ellie’s
world turns upside down when she sees her ex-boyfriend,
Hutch, at her mother’s funeral and learns that he is in
charge of a documentary that involved Lillian before her
death. He wants answers to questions that Ellie’s not sure
she can face, until, in the painful midst of going through
her mother’s things, she discovers a hidden diary — and a
window into stories buried long ago.
As Ellie and
Hutch start speaking for the first time in years, Ellie’s
closed heart slowly begins to open. Fighting their feelings,
they set out together to dig into Lillian’s history. Using
both the diary and a trip to the Summer House, a mysterious
and seductive bayside home, they gamble that they can work
together and not fall in love again. But in piecing together
a decades-old unrequited-love story, they just might uncover
the secrets in their own hearts.
Coming Up for Air is
the story of one woman’s search for truth — and what happens
when love steps in along the way.
