The Summer Getaway
(eBook)
Description
One woman discovers the beauty in chaos in this poignant and heartwarming story about the threads that hold family together. With her divorce settlement about to run out and a mortgage she can't afford, Robyn Caldwell needs a plan for her future. She nurtured her family and neglected herself. But how's she supposed to think when her daughter has become the most demanding bride ever, her son won't even consider college, her best friend is on the brink of marital disaster and her ex is making a monumentally bad decision that could bring everything crashing down on Robyn's head? So when, her great-aunt Lillian invites her to Santa Barbara for the summer, Robyn hops on the first plane. But, it's hard to run away when you're the heart of the family. One by one, everyone she left behind follows her across the country. Somehow, their baggage doesn't feel as heavy in the sun-drenched, mishmash mansion. The more time Robyn spends with free-spirited Lillian, the more she sees the appeal in taking chances-on dreams, on love, on family. Life is meant to be lived on purpose. All she has to do is muster the courage to take a chance on herself.
