Synopsis

Cloverdale is a small town with a big heart. It's a place where everyone knows everyone else, and where the bonds of family and community run deep. But even in the most idyllic of settings, there are secrets and heartaches that can tear families apart.

The novel follows the interwoven lives of several characters as they navigate the challenges and joys of life in Cloverdale. There's Maggie, a young woman who is struggling to come to terms with her mother's death. There's Jake, a widowed father who is trying to raise his two young children on his own. And there's Sarah, a middle-aged woman who is facing the empty nest syndrome after her last child leaves home.

As these characters' lives intersect, they are forced to confront their own demons and to find strength in each other. Cloverdale is a story about the power of family, love, and loss. It's a story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
