Now That You Mention It

From the bestselling author of If You Only Knew and Life and Other Inconveniences comes a witty, emotionally charged novel about the complications of love, family and going home again

One step forward. Two steps back. The Tufts scholarship that put Nora Stuart on the path to becoming a Boston medical specialist was a step forward. Getting hit by a car and overhearing her boyfriend hit on her attending physician? Two major steps back.

Injured in more ways than one, Nora feels her carefully built life cracking at the edges and there’s only one place to land: home. But the tiny Maine community she left fifteen years ago doesn’t necessarily want her. At every turn, someone holds the prodigal daughter of Scupper Island responsible for over a decade’s worth of small-town drama and big-time disappointments.

With a tough but distant islander mother, a wild-child sister in jail and a withdrawn teenage niece as eager to ditch the island as Nora once was, Nora has her work cut out for her if she’s going to take what might be her last chance to mend the family…and reclaim her place in it.
