Book description
Sarah Penn and Maggie Reave are sisters, as different as a tabby and a
tiger. Sarah has married kind, reliable Leo and settled contentedly into
small-town life. Maggie, light-hearted and footloose, has spent fifteen
years drifting round the world with a backpack and a cheerful
willingness to do any menial job as long as it has no future. But now
Maggie has come home, pregnant, and undecided whether or not to keep the
baby. And as she dicusses this with her sister, lets slip that she's had
an abortion before, and that the father was Maggie's husband. This
throws everything into confusion, but Christmas brings reconciliation
and a new baby.
