Opis

Even Carly Summer's favorite past-time of gardening couldn't shake her out of the nagging feeling of imminent doom that September morning. A call from her sister, Kate, would confirm her fear-Millie Summer, the matriarch of the Summer clan, had been diagnosed with stage IV cancer. Having lost their father a year earlier, Carly and her three sisters were now faced with the idea that they may soon be orphans-a daunting reality no matter what age. While the Summer sisters hadn't always seen eye to eye, Millie was their stronghold and so their connection endured. For Carly the awful news means dropping everything in her charmed life to fly across the country and help care for her mother, leaving behind a gifted artist who holds her heart in the palm of his paint-stained hands. Her sisters all have similar throes to deal with; Darcy who the sisters have never kept their disdain for a secret, Kate who never says -no- to anyone and Sarah who has been drowning herself in vodka for years. Her mother's illness could help save her life, or push her over the edge-leaving her sisters behind to cope with even more heartbreak. Millie, intent on claiming her -mansion- in heaven, promises to send Carly a sign-letting her loving daughter know she'd made it safely through the pearly gates. Left with a house full of history, a list of last wishes and a hauntingly beautiful butterfly necklace charged with memories and magic, and for Carly an obsession with receiving a sign, she and her sisters will have to rebuild their lives around each other-this time, without their mother's unending encouragement and faith. Sign or no sign...It's time for the Summer sisters to pull together....or be forever torn apart.
