The author of five blockbuster novels, Emily Giffin,
delivers an unforgettable story of two women, the families
that make them who they are, and the longing, loyalty and
love that binds them together
Marian Caldwell is a thirty-six year old television
producer, living her dream in New York City. With a
fulfilling career and satisfying relationship, she has
convinced everyone, including herself, that her life is just
as she wants it to be. But one night, Marian answers a knock
on the door . . . only to find Kirby Rose, an
eighteen-year-old girl with a key to a past that Marian
thought she had sealed off forever. From the moment Kirby
appears on her doorstep, Marian’s perfectly constructed
world—and her very identity—will be shaken to its core,
resurrecting ghosts and memories of a passionate young love
affair that threaten everything that has come to define her.
For the precocious and determined Kirby, the encounter will
spur a process of discovery that ushers her across the
threshold of adulthood, forcing her to re-evaluate her
family and future in a wise and bittersweet light. As the
two women embark on a journey to find the one thing missing
in their lives, each will come to recognize that where we
belong is often where we least expect to find ourselves—a
place that we may have willed ourselves to forget, but that
the heart remembers forever.
