Produktbeschreibung

2000: This is the year Jenna is supposed to graduate college, become independent, and find true happiness-whatever that looks like. But she is a people pleaser, and when her stepfather's health deteriorates, she leaves school to help take care of him. While she struggles to say goodbye to the only father figure she's ever had, a family secret confirmed by a DNA test drops like a grenade into Jenna's already complicated life. Amidst the fallout and at the worst possible time, she starts falling for a man who turns out to be the first person in her life who doesn't want anything from her-only to be with her. As grief and betrayal threaten to tear her family apart, Jenna must decide how to put her own needs first and allow good things into her life when they show up. "Katie O'Rourke writes engaging, big-hearted stories about complicated families, navigating life, and finding love."

Autorenporträt

Katie grew up in New Hampshire, went to college in Massachusetts, and settled down in Arizona. These are the environments you'll find in her stories because she thinks having an authentic sense of place is so important when you're reading.She's been calling herself a writer since the second grade when her teacher had the class bind their stories with patterned paper and put them on display in the library. She writes the kind of fiction she likes to read: character-driven, relationship-focused, and emotionally complex. She has published several novels and a collection of short stories.She's spent the last twenty years in Tucson where she lives with her sweet yellow lab and even sweeter boyfriend.
