- Four adult daughters = four perspectives
- Decades of secrets slowly surface together
- Witty dialogue softens the heartbreak beautifully
- Suburban Chicago feels lived-in & real
Patchett gave you one family's gentle reckoning on a Michigan orchard; Lombardo hands you four sisters and their parents unraveling decades of quiet choices across suburban Chicago. The same lyrical restraint, the same refusal to manufacture crisis—just sharp, tender prose illuminating the beauty in paths not taken, midlife marriages tested by time, and the unspoken what-ifs that bind generations without breaking them.
Here's the wager: if you loved hearing Emily's daughters draw stories from their mother, you'll fall harder for the Sorenson sisters excavating their own family mythology, one witty, devastating conversation at a time.
This is the novel for readers who trust that authentic family intricacies matter more than plot pyrotechnics.
What Readers Are Saying
"…I could see glimpses of myself in Marilyn and that was one of the main reasons why I continued turning the pages. The Sorenson family was messy, full of both heartache and triumph and quite relatable in their interactions. If family drama is your thing - this one will pull you right in." — BernLuvsBooks, Goodreads
"… The Sorenson's will instantly grab you and won't let go until the very last page. I love character driven family saga/dramas and this one has plenty of everything. A peek into a seemingly perfect marriage between the parents and the rollercoaster ride that is the lives of their FOUR daughters…" — Michelle, Goodreads
"The author of this novel is an old soul. Lombardo deeply understands marriage, sisterhood and plain old ordinary family dysfunction which is present on every character driven page." — Tammy, Goodreads
