Maisey Yates is fast becoming one of my favorite authors. Her books bring me joy and really hit home with the themes that they touch on.
Book Description
The Ashwood women don’t have much in common...except their ability to keep secrets.
When Lark Ashwood’s beloved grandmother dies, she and her sisters discover an unfinished quilt. Finishing it could be the reason Lark’s been looking for to stop running from the past, but is she ever going to be brave enough to share her biggest secret with the people she ought to be closest to?
Hannah can’t believe she’s back in Bear Creek, the tiny town she sacrificed everything to escape from. The plan? Help her sisters renovate her grandmother’s house and leave as fast as humanly possible. Until she comes face-to-face with a man from her past. But getting close to him again might mean confessing what really drove her away...
Stay-at-home mom Avery has built a perfect life, but at a cost. She’ll need all her family around her, and all her strength, to decide if the price of perfection is one she can afford to keep paying.
This summer, the Ashwood women must lean on each other like never before, if they are to stitch their family back together, one truth at a time.

My Thoughts
A story of sisterhood, secrets, heartbreak, love, loss, and learning to heal is what this book is all about. When three sisters come together after the death of their grandma they not only rediscover their sisterly bond but also years of heartbreak and dark secrets that go back generations.

Through reading this story I was able to find some healing and was in love with the story. This is definitely one of those books I can see myself reading again ad again because the characters are timeless.
