Fiction Family Life
The McCloud Home for Wayward Girls, once a haven for unwed
mothers, is now a bed-and-breakfast that houses three
generations of women-and their many secrets... In the early 1960s, Ruby, a spunky unwed teen mother was
wooed and won over by the founder of the McCloud Home. Now,
forty years later, the historic property has been converted
into an inn that Ruby runs with one of her daughters, Jill.
When Jill's fourteen-year-old daughter begins to search for
the identity of her father, she sets in motion events that
will test the bonds that bind mothers, daughters, and sisters. Jill unwittingly aids the forces of upheaval when she agrees
to host the wake of the town matriarch. As the
guests-including the matriarch's handsome nephew and Jill's
vivacious, irresponsible sister Jocelyn-return to the small
town, the convergence of people and memories uncovers
rivalries, sparks romance, recalls heartbreak, and reveals a
shocking family secret, one that could separate the McCloud
women forever or lead them to the renewal of their powerful,
enduring connection.
