In the 1970s, Marilyn Connolly and David Sorenson fall in love, unaware of the challenges ahead. By 2016, their four daughters find themselves in turmoil. Wendy, widowed young, copes with alcohol and younger men; Violet, a former litigator turned stay-at-home mom, grapples with anxiety as her past resurfaces; Liza, a neurotic new professor, faces an unplanned pregnancy with a man she may not love; and Grace, the youngest, lives a secret life unknown to her family. All four daughters share a deep-seated fear of never experiencing a love like their parents'. The narrative unfolds over a tumultuous year following the return of Jonah Bendt, given up for adoption by one daughter fifteen years earlier. This event reveals the complex history of the Sorenson family, marked by troubled adolescence, infidelity, and resentment, yet also filled with moments of joy. Spanning nearly fifty years and set in Chicago and its suburbs, the story delves into the challenges and rewards of love, the complexities of parenthood and sisterhood, and the intricate emotions we hold for those closest to us. Through this vivid portrayal of a family's evolution, the author joins the ranks of notable contemporary writers chronicling modern life.
