Nora Stuart has a pretty good life. She is a Doctor, she's living with her boyfriend and she has a great dog named Boomer. As often happens in real life, Nora will find that her dog is more dependable and trustworthy than the boyfriend. When she is hit by a van she is crushed to awaken to see her boyfriend flirting with the doctor while she is trying to figure out if she is dead or alive. Turns out she is alive but knows that recovering from her injuries at her apartment is not going to be an option. So reluctantly she decides she will return to her hometown of Scupper Island Maine. It isn't a decision she takes lightly but she has no choice. It was a place where she was bullied for being fat. She left and had no intentions of going back.
So now she is back and living with her mother and sharing a bedroom with her niece Poe. Poe is there because her mother (Nora's sister) is across the country in prison.
This was a nice entertaining book. A little romance, a bit of mystery, some quirky characters, a past that will make you sad and best of all the dog is alive and well at the end of the story!! (spoiler alert- the bird isn't).
