Description
The ink on Carrie's divorce papers was barely dry when she got the frantic call from her ex-husband's sister... Carrie's young niece trusted when she shouldn't have and everything in her young life changes. Without a second thought Carrie agrees to her former sister-in-law's request to allow Addie to spend time with her in Burlington. Regardless of the divorce she is still family. Within hours of Addie's arrival Carrie realizes the damage done to her young niece is far worse than she could have anticipated and that a few shopping excursions weren't going to do the trick.
She turns to her family and before long Carrie's mother is involved in the efforts to help Addie. Her cousins aren't far behind. But it's Grace, Carrie's neighbor and friend that she met shortly after her return to the city of her most precious childhood memories, who comes up with the idea to give Addie and others like her what they need. And in the process gives Addie a way to do more than to be a victim.
Carrie arrived in her family's hometown of Burlington months ago in search of her mother who had been staunchly determined to return to the city she had always called home. And she had done just that without letting any of her family know. While Carrie never planned to stay in Burlington once she made sure her mother was happily settled in, she finds that there is no better place for starting over and beginning a new life than being surrounded by family who know and understand her best.
And now in the midst of Addie's unexpected arrival Carrie's cautious friendship with Court turns a corner when he reveals to her his own closely held secret. One he is willing to allow to be exposed as part of the overall effort to help her niece.
And then there is her cousin Mary's newly purchased house on Summer Street. It's a mess both inside and out. But it's another connection to family. Family who came to Burlington to begin anew generations ago.
Connections. They are surrounded by them and even as Carrie and her cousins embark on another of Casey's business savvy ideas they find the house is not all it seems... but so much more as they come to learn when they discover the long hidden secrets in the house on Summer Street.
