At age thirty-four, Lily Brown has her life just the way she likes it. Sheβs got a great job as an advice columnist for the local newspaper, an adorable four-year-old son, and an ex-husband, Teddy, who still thinks sheβs wonderful. She even lives in the same beach house where she grew up, with a great view of Long Island Sound and plenty of beach roses to smell. So what if she wonβt let herself date anyone until she finds a new girlfriend for Teddy, who happens to still be hung up on her? So what if she hasnβt changed a thing in her parentsβ house, even twelve years after their tragic deaths? So what if itβs been ten years since sheβs heard from her younger sister, Dana, who stormed out of the house in a rage when she was a teenager? Lily is fine. But itβs funny how life has a way of upsetting even the most perfectly laid-out plans, and when one night Lily finds herself painting ghastly orange highlights into her lovely auburn hair, even she suspects that sheβs been in something of a rut. And then, when her long-lost little sister shows up, bringing with her the fun and drama and hell-raising spontaneity Lily has missed, her life suddenly takes a turn for the unexpected. To Lilyβs chagrin, Danaβs energy seems to enthrall everyone, especially Teddy. As the tension between the sisters escalates, Dana reveals decades-old family secrets that sheβs been burdened with all these years, and Dear Lily must heed her own advice about accepting lifeβs messiness and chaos.
