Publisher's Synopsis
Sometimes less really is more . . . Sandra and Marshall Campion have reached an age when they're free to enjoy their lives. Trips to Belize, weekends at the beach house with friends, tailgating, and season passes to college football games. Their youngest, Brock, has just graduated from college and is engaged. Their oldest, Ella, is a successful realtor and married to a family law attorney. Ella still harbors an irrational grudge against her younger sister, Maddie, who dropped out of college at twenty and has been off 'finding herself'. The Campions are both shocked and thrilled when Maddie returns after a five-year absence with a pre-school aged daughter. The sibling grudge between the two sisters rears its ugly head again, bringing to light more unanswered questions. Are Ella's feelings towards Maddie simply a matter of petty childhood issues or is there something deeper at the core of her resentment? Tempers flare, and one daughter ends up in the hospital. Soon after, the Campions awaken to discover that Maddie has chosen flight over fight once again. But this time she's left behind two things: a note, and her child. Can Maddie resolve her issues and come home to finish raising her daughter, or will the new grandparents be forced to put their lives on hold to do it themselves?
