Ever since the Bommarito sisters were little girls, their mother, River,
has written them a letter on pink paper when she has something
especially important to impart. This time, the message is urgent--River
requires open-heart surgery, and Isabelle and her sisters are needed at
home to run the family bakery and care for their brother and ailing
grandmother.
Isabelle has worked hard to leave Trillium River, Oregon, behind as she
travels the globe taking award-winning photographs. Still, she and her
sisters, Cecilia, an outspoken kindergarten teacher, and Janie, a
bestselling author, share a deep, loving bond. And all of them adore
their brother, Henry, whose disabilities haven't stopped him from
helping out at the bakery and bringing good cheer to everyone in town.
But going home again has a way of forcing open the secrets and hurts the
Bommaritos would rather keep tightly closed--Isabelle's fleeting
relationships, Janie's obsessive compulsive disorder, and Cecilia's
plans to get even with her cheating ex-husband. Now, working together,
Isabelle and her sisters begin to find answers to questions they never
knew existed, unexpected ways to salve their childhood wounds, and the
courage to grasp surprising new chances at happiness.
As irresistible as one of the Bommarito's giant cupcakes, Henry's
Sisters is a novel about family and forgiveness, mothers and
daughters--and gaining the wisdom to look ahead while still holding onto
everything that matters most.
