If you love \u201csouthern summer\u201d fiction authors like Mary Alice Monroe and Kristy Woodson Harvey you\u2019ll love this delicious novel about family, friendship, and finding your true path in life.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Esme Cahill thinks she has failed spectacularly: fired from her New York City publishing job, divorced from her husband, and possessing little more than a broken-down car and a pile of unfinished manuscripts, she drives home to Asheville at the request of her late grandmother, Adele, who had begged her, just before she died, to return to the place she grew up.<\/p>\n<p>There she discovers the once-charming lakeside retreat run by her family is sliding toward financial ruin, so with the help of her grandfather, George; estranged mother, Robyn; and a travelling chef Dawes (maker of the world\u2019s best grilled cheese sandwich) they set to work. In the attic, Esme unearths a trove of museum-worthy art quilts, sewn by Adele. Piecing together the inspiration behind them, Esme discovers a forgotten chapter in her family history and her grandmother\u2019s untold story, that of a gifted artist who never received her due.<\/p>\n<p>This is an always-emotional, sometimes humorous, very human novel of what it means to be family\u2014the ties that bind us together and the unintentional hurts that can rend us apart. And, along the way, Esme learns that failure can be the first step toward the life you\u2019re meant to find.<\/p>\n<p> <br \/>\n                    From the Publisher              <\/p>\n<p>                                                 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"banner 1\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/7a82d497-1267-4f66-8b4e-d37bfe4cc850.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"banner 1\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/7a82d497-1267-4f66-8b4e-d37bfe4cc850.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\">  <\/p>\n<p>                                                 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"banner 2\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/1fa723c8-c2f2-4f73-b5eb-5e41b3c9da41.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"banner 2\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/1fa723c8-c2f2-4f73-b5eb-5e41b3c9da41.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\">  <\/p>\n<p>                                                 <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"banner 3\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/6c953dfe-5512-4a21-b236-f5903454f6e3.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"banner 3\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/6c953dfe-5512-4a21-b236-f5903454f6e3.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\">  <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                                        William Morrow Paperbacks       <br \/> Publication date                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                                        May 30, 2023       <br \/> Language                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                            English   <br \/> Print length                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                                        368 pages       <br \/> ISBN-10                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                                        0062997319       <br \/> ISBN-13                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                                        978-0062997319       <br \/> Item Weight                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                            2.31 pounds   <br \/> Dimensions                                            \u200f                                            :                                            \u200e                                                        5.31 x 0.83 x 8 inches       <br \/>       Best Sellers Rank:  #139,803 in Books (See Top 100 in Books)    #249 in Women&#8217;s Friendship Fiction   #399 in Friendship Fiction (Books)   #7,364 in Literary Fiction (Books)      <br \/>  Customer Reviews:                                                                                     4.6             4.6 out of 5 stars                                    859 ratings                                             var dpAcrHasRegisteredArcLinkClickAction;
