"Have you ever wondered what your mother was like before she became your mother, and what she gave up in order to have you? Laura is a songwriter with a one-of-a-kind talent. Newly arrived in New York City in the early days of the new millennium, she's left behind her safe life in Ohio for the East Village, where she hopes to record her first album. But soon she falls hard for rock star on the rise Dylan. His accidental death leaves Laura reeling--and, she soon learns, pregnant. Fourteen years later, Marie finds herself grappling with her father's legacy as she battles depression and her mother. Laura has tried to keep Marie from asking too many questions about her biological father's history. When Marie runs away to track down Dylan's family, it forces both mother and daughter to confront the heartbreak at the root of their relationship. Laura must face what she's lost to motherhood and find out what parts of her former self might still be hers to reclaim."--Provided by publisher.
