Meri Calder-Hollis goes back to her Gram's house to celebrate her 30th birthday with her grandmother and her dad. But along with a wonderful meal and a cake, she receives the surprise of her life: she's adopted. With the reality she thought she knew gone, she's reeling and searching for answers about her past, present and future and what she thinks she wants and what her heart tells her she wants. Nice storyline - she works at restoring old homes and you get a glimpse of what historic renovations involve and life in Newport, RI. Good read.
