About this item

Sometimes, the best way to find yourself is by moving in with a stranger… even if she’s family

When thirty-five-year-old Sophia Harper loses her job and her apartment in the same week, she’s left with no choice but to move in with her eccentric aunt Betty on Maplewood Lane. Expecting a quiet and boring life, Sophia is instead greeted by a whirlwind of zany neighborhood antics, impromptu dance parties, and a house filled with more knick-knacks than she thought possible.

As Sophia navigates her new life with Aunt Betty—who insists on morning yoga and afternoon tea with the neighbors—she starts to uncover pieces of herself she didn’t know were missing. Between the quirky townspeople, a potential new career as a cupcake baker, and the unexpected attention of a charming local handyman, Sophia’s life takes a turn she never saw coming.

But when a long-buried family secret emerges, Sophia must decide whether to retreat back to her old life or embrace the chaos of Maplewood Lane. Can she learn to trust herself, and her heart, enough to stay?

This is a light-hearted and funny tale about finding yourself where you least expect it, and the importance of family, no matter how unconventional they may be. This is Book 1 of 6. Scroll up and grab your copy today!

    So exciting to start a new series by this wonderful author, Sage Parker

    Sophia finds herself working in the same bank she started in 10 years previously when graduating from college She is bored and very unhappy with her work life and life in general and finds herself being “punished” at work and at home. Her roommate, Claire tries to convince her that she is being given new opportunities rather than being punished. Sophia takes this under advisement and decides to go home to see her Aunt Betty for an extended visit to try to get her life on a more even keel. Even is far from what happens as she soon recalls that St Simons is a town where everyone knows everyone else’s business. This creates new issues for her as she soon finds out there are hidden things about her own past. She is shocked with the first revealed secret
    Can’t wait to get the next installment.

    The first in this series leaves you hanging. You can foresee the romance and mystery developing as you read this first segment. Anxiously to read the next one.
