Sissie Klein Is Completely Normal cover

Perfect for fans of Robyn Carr's Virgin River Series, the author of Goodbye, Lark Lovejoy returns with a stirring story of a mother's enduring love, a family's betrayal, and the ultimate act of forgiveness. One mistake can steal your innocence. One promise can plague a friendship. One secret can tear apart a family. Sissie Klein barely remembers the night that tore her from the carefree life she knew. Not long after the shocked teen is pushed into marriage, she's rushed to the hospital where a catastrophic delivery seals her destiny. Sissie is determined to give her daughter the opportunities she forfeited, but some fates can't be avoided. Tragedy strikes, leaving behind a legacy of deceit - and an orphaned toddler. Told with heartbreaking honesty and shrewd humor, Sissie Klein Is Completely Normal examines the ties that bind us - some inherited, others chosen - none without their share of agonizing tangles.

“A warmhearted tale about second chances that will satisfy fans of romance and family dramas.”
