Описание: Katherine Lamontagne isnt Celeste Barness mother, but ever since Celeste graduated high school and her parents abandoned Hidden Harbor, Maine, shes acted the part. At twenty-two, Celeste worked at Katherines bakery, and hoped to buy the business once Katherine took early retirement. But when Katherine reconsidered that decision, Celeste fled to culinary school in New York--only to return two months later, a shadow of the girl whod stormed out the door.

Katherine knows the signs of secret heartbreak. Years ago, she gave up her baby son for adoption--a regret shes never shared with either her ex-husband or Celeste. She longs for Celeste to confide in her now. But it will be a stranger in town--an engaging young wanderer named Zach Fitzgerald--who spurs them toward healing. As both women are drawn into Zachs questioning heart, they also rediscover their own appetites for truth and for love--and gain the courage to face the past without being imprisoned by it.

Uplifting, emotionally rich, and deeply satisfying, A Measure of Happiness illuminates the nature of friendship, motherhood, hope--and the gifts of second chances.

Advance Praise

In this absorbing, emotional novel about family secrets, Lorrie Thomson demonstrates that having the courage to open our hearts to love is the true measure of happiness.
--Holly Robinson, author of Beach Plum Island and Haven Lake

A Measure of Happiness is about many things - finding home, facing fears, and making choices among them. But more than anything, its the book youll reach for when you want to recall that perfect love can still be found in an imperfect world. - Therese Walsh, author of The Moon Sisters

Описание: An amazing debut --Lisa Verge Higgins

In the year since her husband died, Laura Klein's world has shifted on its axis. It's not just that she's raising two children alone--fact is, Laura always did the parenting for both of them. But now her fifteen-year-old daughter, Darcy, is dating a boy with a fast car and faster hands, and thirteen-year-old Troy's attitude has plummeted along with his voice. Just when she's resigning herself to a life of worry and selfless support, her charismatic new tenant offers what Laura least expects: a second chance.

Darcy isn't surprised her mom doesn't understand her, though she never imagined her suddenly acting like a love-struck teen herself. With Troy starting to show signs of their father's bipolar disorder, and her best friend increasingly secretive, Darcy turns to her new boyfriend, Nick, for support. Yet Nick has a troubled side of his own, forcing Darcy toward life-altering choices.

Exploring the effects of grief on both mother and daughter, Equilibrium is a thoughtful, resolutely uplifting novel about finding the balance between holding on and letting go, between knowing when to mourn and when to hope, and between the love we seek and the love we choose to give.

"Equilibrium is an emotional, complex, and deeply satisfying novel about the power of hope, love, and family. I couldn't put it down " --Lisa Verge Higgins, author of One Good Friend Deserves Another

"Tender, heartbreaking and beautifully realistic. Fans of Anita Shreve will be riveted by this intense and compassionate story." --Hank Phillippi Ryan, Agatha, Anthony and Macavity-winning author
