Acclaimed novelist Anne Rivers Siddons's new novel is a stunning tale of love and loss. For as long as she can remember, they were Cam and Lilly--happily married, totally in love with each other, parents of a beautiful family, and partners in life. Then, after decades of marriage, it ended as every great love story does...in loss. After Cam's death, Lilly takes a lone road trip to her and Cam's favorite spot on the remote coast of Maine, the place where they fell in love over and over again, where their ghosts still dance. There, she looks hard to her past--to a first love that ended in tragedy; to falling in love with Cam; to a marriage filled with exuberance, sheer life, and safety-- to try to figure out her future. It is a journey begun with tender memories and culminating in a revelation that will make Lilly re-evaluate everything she thought was true about her husband and her marriage.

If you are long-time fan of Anne Rivers Siddons, you will slip into this book as you would slip into a well-worn pair of faded Levi's. The characters are familiar -- perhaps a little too familiar -- but compelling and lovable all the same. The usual themes are tapped -- love, loss, family, friendship, heartache -- but are mixed together and stirred up into a terrific story. Even if I could have predicted the ending, I would always ask for more. As one who has read Siddon's books over and over again, I look forward as always to her next book.
