It’s a pleasure
to tell you that THE SOMETIMES SISTERS by Carolyn Brown hit the bookshelves this
past week with its release on Tuesday, Feb. 27.
This story is
about a bittersweet inheritance that reunites three estranged sisters in a
novel of family, trust, and forgiveness from New York Times bestselling author
Carolyn Brown.
When they were growing up, Dana,
Harper, and Tawny thought of themselves as “sometimes sisters.” They connected
only during the summer month they’d all spend at their grandmother’s rustic
lakeside resort in north Texas. But secrets started building, and ten years
have passed since they’ve all been together—in fact, they’ve rarely spoken, and
it broke their grandmother’s heart.
Now she’s gone, leaving Annie’s Place
to her granddaughters—twelve cabins, a small house, a café, a convenience
store, and a lot of family memories. It’s where Dana, Harper, and Tawny once
shared so many good times. They’ve returned, sharing only hidden regrets, a
guarded mistrust, and haunting guilt. But now, in this healing summer place,
the secrets that once drove them apart could bring them back together—especially
when they discover that their grandmother may have been hiding something, too…
To
overcome the past and find future happiness, these “sometimes sisters” have one
more chance to realize they are always family.

For those who aren’t familiar with the author, here’s a bit of
background on her.
Author Carolyn Brown |
A plaque hangs on
her office wall that says I know the voices are not real but they have such
great ideas. That is her motto and muse as she goes through the days with
quirky characters in her head, telling their stories, one by one, and loving
her job.
She has been
married almost half a century to a retired English teacher that she calls Mr. B
and he does not read her books before they are published because she cannot
afford a divorce. They have three grown children and enough grandchildren to
keep them busy and young.
When Carolyn is
not writing she likes to sit in the back yard and watch the two tom cats
protect the yard from all kinds of wicked varmints like crickets, other cats,
spiders and blue jays.

Thanks for
stopping by today. I hope you’ll check out Carolyn’s book and be sure to stop
back by here next week when I share my thoughts on this delightful and
heartwarming story. Do you have siblings that you are close to or maybe just ‘sometimes
siblings?’
Glad to hear this one's out, Mason. I give Brown credit for doing something different. I like it when authors stretch their proverbial muscles like that.
