Holly Chamberlin

A bookstore owner in a seaside village on coastal Maine is shocked when the daughter she was forced to give up for adoption thirty-seven years prior arrives at her door and the pair attempt to forge a new relationshipNot a day has passed in which Arden Bell hasn't thought of the baby she glimpsed only once before her wealthy, powerful parents forced her to give her up for adoption. She left her Maine hometown of Port George, changed her name, and has barely seen her parents since. Nor has she heard from Rob, the boy she was so passionately in love with. Thirty-seven years later, in the seaside hamlet of Eliot's Corner, she opens her bookstore door to Laura Huntington-- the daughter she gave up. As both women embark on a journey to forge a new relationship and unravel the past, they make sometimes painful, often unexpected discoveries. -- adapted from back cover
