Women's Fiction
Sometimes you have to leave your life to find yourself
again . . . After more than a dozen moves in twenty-five years of
marriage, Joanna Harrison is lonely and tired of being a
corporate wife. Her children are grown and gone, her
husband is more married to his job than to her, and now
they're about to pack up once more. Panicked at the
thought of having to start all over again, Joanna commits
the first irresponsible act of her life. She runs away to
Pawleys Island, South Carolina, a place she's been to just
once. She finds a job as a live-in companion to Grace Finelli, a
widow who has come to the island to fulfill a girlhood
dream. Together the two women embark on the most difficult
journey of their lives: Joanna struggling for
independence, roots, and a future of her own, as her
family tugs at her from afar; and Grace, choosing to live
the remainder of her life for herself alone, knowing she
may never see her children again. Entwined is Paul Harrison's story as he loses his wife,
his job, and everything that defines him as a man. He
takes off on his own journey out west, searching for the
answers to all that has gone wrong in his life. One thing
remains constant: He wants his wife back. Joanna, however, is moving farther away from her old life
as she joins a group dedicated to rescuing endangered
loggerhead turtles, led by a charismatic fisherman unlike
anyone she's ever met.
