"Oh, honey," I say. "Im sorry. Dont worry about me! Im totally good. Im so, so happy to be here with you."
This is how it is to love somebody. You tell them the truth. You lie a little. And sometimes you dont say anything at all..."

From the bestselling author of WE ALL WANT IMPOSSIBLE THINGS

For the past two decades, Rocky has looked forward to her familys yearly escape to Cape Cod. Their rustic beach-town rental has been the site of sweet memories, its quirky furniture and mismatched pots and pans greeted like old friends.

Now, sandwiched between her children who are adult enough to be fun but still young enough to need her, and her parents who are alive and healthy, Rocky wants to preserve this golden moment forever. This one precious week when everything is in balance; everything is in flux.

But every family has its secrets and hers is no exception. With her body in open revolt and surprises invading her peaceful haven, the perfectly balanced seesaw of Rockys life is tipping towards change
