Another Yesterday

"You never get another yesterday . . ."
It's
something my mother used to always say, and although I heard the words,
I never really knew what they meant. At least not until my life had
utterly fallen apart.
1966
~ Nineteen, alone, and with a baby on her hip, Maggie flees from all
she knows. Finding herself in Shadow Brook, a small town off the coast
of Maine, Maggie begins to rebuild her life working at an inn, making
new friends, and finding love again---something she never believed she
ever have. Her only problem is a past she wishes to hide from and
keeping secrets that could shatter her daughters world.
1996
~ Rachel never wanted her mother's life, but after finding her husband
in bed with another woman and her mother's untimely death, Rachel finds
herself not only back in Shadow Brook, but facing the realization what
she thought she never wanted was exactly what she was getting. When
Rachel comes across a box of her mother's old journals in the attic, her
whole world begins to unravel, and Rachel learns the truth her mother
has hidden for thirty years.
Two lives. Two Stories. One fateful afternoon family secrets are uncovered from the past.
Another Yesterday is an emotionally compelling novel about a mother and daughter and the secrets that are kept.
This
beautiful novel is so heartrendingly realistic that I found myself
reaching for the tissues on several occasions. This is certainly a
captivating read and one that I could not put down. One more page became
one more chapter, and I finished the novel at 2 in the morning. This is
a novel that I was happy to forgo sleep to finish.
