<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>From Jean Reynolds Page--the critically acclaimed author of <em>The Space Between Before and After</em> and one of the most compelling voices in contemporary women's fiction--comes a dazzling novel of loss and redemption, of relationships that damage and those that heal.</p><p>Thirty-nine and pregnant by a man she's decided to leave behind in California, Jules' life is changing. Always the protected daughter, she must now relinquish that role and prepare to be a mother herself. But her efforts are upstaged by shocking allegations from a local teen in her North Carolina hometown. The boy has accused her of what the police are calling "inappropriate sexual contact." Three men rally in her defense: Lincoln, her brother, who flies in from New York to help her; Sam, her high school boyfriend, who after so many years still offers unconditional support; and Walt, the uncle of the teen, who charms Jules with his intelligence and unanticipated kindness. </p><p>Her search for the truth about the troubled teenager becomes, for Jules, a first step toward discovering the woman she wishes to be. But with so many wrong choices behind her, how can she trust herself with the future of her unborn child?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Pleasant....Page's knack for characterization...helps nudge things toward an appropriately affirmative ending."--<em>Publishers Weekly</em><br>
