LOST AND FOUND SISTERS is a hilarious read about friendship, love, family and sisterhood. It's a great story about finding a purpose in life again after a loss that throws you off center. Jill Shalvis takes you through what life is like when you lose someone dear to you, leaving you floundering and trying to find something to stabilize you. Imagine how you would feel to suddenly discover that for 30 years what you believed to be your life has been a lie.

Quinn Weller has a loving family, a dream job as a chef in a famous Los Angeles restaurant and a gorgeous boyfriend dying to marry her. With all of that she still feels like something is missing. She has been feeling like this for the past two years when she lost her sister in a car accident. Now all of a sudden this lawyer shows up and drops a bombshell secret and a mysterious inheritance that will blow her life up. Learning that her whole life has been a lie sends her on a trip of discovery to the small town of Wildestone, California. She's in for an even bigger shock when she learns what this inheritance is. While there she will have numerous visits from her dead sister's ghost providing her with advice and encouragement. There will be some hilarious encounters with the dead as well as the living. And she finds what life is like in a small town where there are no secrets because everyone knows what happens instantly.

She's drawn to the charming small town that is world's apart from her life in Los Angeles. She is really drawn to the stranger she meets when she first arrives in town along with his dog. Their first encounter is hilarious. Mick Hennessey is reluctantly back in Wildestone to help his mother after the death of his father. Meeting Quinn changes his perspective about returning home to the town he never intended to return to. This small town and the people in it will help Quinn to find the fulfillment she has been searching for.

SUMMARY

From New York Times bestselling author Jill Shalvis comes her first women's fiction novel—an unforgettable story of friendship, love, family, and sisterhood—perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover, Susan Mallery, and Kristan Higgins.

They say life can change in an instant…

After losing her sister in a devastating car accident, chef Quinn Weller is finally getting her life back on track. She appears to have it all: a loving family, a dream job in one of L.A.'s hottest eateries, and a gorgeous boyfriend dying to slip an engagement ring on her finger. So why does she feel so empty, like she's looking for a missing piece she can't find?

The answer comes when a lawyer tracks down Quinn and reveals a bombshell secret and a mysterious inheritance that only she can claim. This shocking revelation washes over Quinn like a tidal wave. Her whole life has been a lie.

On impulse, Quinn gives up her job, home, and boyfriend. She heads up the coast to the small hometown of Wildstone, California, which is just a few hours north, but feels worlds apart from Los Angeles. Though she doesn't quite fit in right away, she can't help but be drawn to the town’s simple pleasures…and the handsome, dark-haired stranger who offers friendship with no questions asked.

As Quinn settles into Wildstone, she discovers there's another surprise in store for her. The inheritance isn't a house or money, but rather something earthshattering, something that will make her question everything she thought she knew about herself, about her family. Now with a world of possibilities opening up to Quinn, she must decide if this new life is the one she was always meant to have—and the one that could finally give her the fulfillment she's searched so long for.
