A Little Ray of Sunshine

Higgins (Out of the Clear Blue Sky) returns with her signature writing style that will make readers laugh, possibly cry, and think deeply about the role of family and motherhood. When Harlow became pregnant as a college freshman, she gave up the baby for adoption, opting to keep the case closed until the child turned 18. Now she works at her family’s bookstore on Cape Cod, leading a quiet life—until her son, Matthew, walks in and introduces himself. Harlow is so surprised to see the son she gave up, she faints. Matthew’s adoptive mother, Monica, is just as surprised when she realizes Matthew asked to come to Cape Cod on vacation to meet his biological mother without divulging the real reason. Throw in a possible love interest for Harlow when her old high school friend Grady returns to town, and this is a perfectly done novel.
