Cassie George is barely staying above water as she works to get her doctorate and raise her daughter. But she stubbornly keeps swimming to prove a few bad decisions haven't ruined her forever. Plus, it's all a great excuse to stay away from the small Oregon town she fled in shame years prior. But when she receives a call that the aunt who raised her has had a major health crisis, she knows it's time to return.
Cassie is surprised to be more welcomed by the quirky seaside community than she expected, even if there's still tension between her and her former classmate, Nora Milford. But she still can't help feeling unsettled and is mystified by a mysterious package that appears, full of typed pages that tell the story of an anonymous woman's life. As her curiosity sends her on a journey toward truth, Cassie will discover that who she thought she was and what she wants for her life are both about to change.

"Nelson offers pictures of grace, glimpses of beauty, and the hope of redemption."--LAUREN K. DENTON on *The Way It Should Be*
"Readers will be quickly drawn into this powerful novel that is, in turns, both heartbreaking and uplifting."--*BOOKLIST* starred review on *More Than We Remember*

A lovely story of identity and belonging, and how both of these are shaped by our memories, circumstances, and misconceptions. I enjoyed how the theme played out among the different characters, while the mystery about Cassie's identity had me eagerly turning each page! This novel would be enjoyed by fans of Lisa Wingate.

Beautifully Written
Another beautifully written story by Nelson. An engaging story about love, relationships and family. It is also a tale of regrets, tragedy's and loss. It has a little mystery to Cassie's story that helps move the story along at a good pace. I would've enjoyed reading more of Nora's and Marshall's story. The ending wrapped up a little quicker than I think it deserved. A lot of the ending and last chapter was taken up by describing a wedding that I didn't really have any connection to or care about. I would've preferred to hear more about the main characters story instead. A beautiful story and wonderful storytelling.
