As the oldest of the Williams siblings, it was Olivia Girard’s job to hold her family together after the loss of their mother. But she didn’t, and things went from bad to worse when their mother died. Now, with their father gone, Liv’s own family life is falling apart around her, and she doesn’t have the heart or the energy to dedicate to her siblings.Liv has no desire to finish redecorating their parents’ old house, because once it’s done, her childhood home will be sold to someone else. Her daughter is graduating from high school and looking forward to college, while Liv can only wonder where time has gone and worry for Gracie’s happiness and safety. And most troubling to Liv, her marriage is on the rocks, and she has only herself to blame.Desperate to make waves, to make her husband Wade see her again, Liv did a bad thing, and now she’s paying for it. Wade isn’t sure he can forgive her mistakes, and Liv isn’t sure she wants him to, because she’s not sure of anything in her life at the moment. Except that she’s miserably unhappy from the inside out, and no one, not even Wade, not her children, not her siblings, can change that. Can Liv accept that she’s the only person who can change her heart before she’s free to offer it again to those she loves? Will they wait for her to figure it out, or will her loved ones move on without her?
