About this audiobook
At fifty-two, Mara Ellison thought she knew how the rest of her life would unfold—until her marriage ended, her children grew independent, and an unexpected inheritance brought her to Bellweather Lake and an abandoned pie shop full of family secrets.
Reopening the Bluebird gives Mara a chance to build a life on her own terms. With a fiercely loyal circle of new friends, she transforms a crumbling inheritance into a thriving business while uncovering the truth about her mother, the aunt who left her everything, and the choices that shaped them both.
Then there's Callum Reed, the quiet carpenter next door whose steady presence makes Mara question every wall around her heart. Both have loved and lost before. As buried secrets link their families, they must decide whether love after loss can be chosen one honest day at a time.
Warm and uplifting, this later-in-life romance is for anyone who believes it's never too late to open a new door.
