“When emerging from its cocoon, a butterfly needs the struggle to push the fluid from its body into its wings. So essentially, without the struggle, it never flies.”

From the USA Today bestselling author of The Beach House comes a story about family bonds, second chances, and finding out who we really are. Butterfly Sisters is the perfect escape for fans of Susan Wiggs, RaeAnne Thayne, and Susan Mallery.

About to land her biggest deal yet, Leigh Henderson is on her game. She’s prepared for this, and nothing can get in her way. Except Rebecca Mayer, who’d sashayed in a few weeks ago with a former client list that would fill the entire hallway to Leigh’s office if she laid it out end to end. When her boss unexpectedly offers the deal to Rebecca and tells Leigh he’s letting her go, Leigh finds herself without a job.

But that’s the least of her worries. 

Her mother has some news that will change everything. She’s asked Leigh and her sister Meredith to meet her at the family cabin on Old Hickory Lake. Not only has Leigh been unable to pin her sister down in years, but going back to the cabin would mean dealing with the loss of her beloved grandmother and also chance running into her old flame Colton Harris, the one love she’s never been able to completely let go of.

Will confronting her grief, speaking to her estranged sister, and being forced to face the love she’d left behind help Leigh to learn who she really is? 

A heartwarming story that will have you laughing, crying, and rushing to those you hold dear. If you loved the Christmas movies based on Jenny’s books and are looking for more feel-good, small-town romance, look no further!

Excerpt

There was only one what-if in Leigh Henderson’s life. She didn’t think about it often, because when she let it into her consciousness, it swarmed her: the lost opportunity for a totally different life.

It had been the spring of her senior year in high school. She was hardly old enough to make her own decisions then, let alone to know what was right in front of her. The weather had turned considerably warm that year, the springtime rushing in with summer flare, temperatures in the eighties sending all her friends running for the Gulf Coast beaches of Seaside and Watercolor for spring break, but Leigh had chosen to spend the week at her grandmother’s cabin on Old Hickory Lake—her favorite place in the world. She spent every summer and holiday at the lake house with her grandmother.

No matter how hard her schoolwork or whatever she might be going through with her sister Meredith (and they were always going through something), her nan could always help her to see a different perspective. That year, Leigh knew she would be saying goodbye to a side of herself that she wasn’t sure she was ready to give up, and she’d needed the comfort of Nan and the cabin to soften the blow.

Taking full advantage of the spike in temperature, Leigh’s bare feet hung off the edge of the dock, her pink toenails dipping under the cold lapping water below her. She leaned back and turned her freshly bronzed face to the sun, her locks of golden hair puddling on the dock at her back, her fingers spread out on the old wood, taking in the final moments of her youth.

A long, slow whistle caught her ear, sending her reaching for her towel to cover last year’s pink bikini that tied at her hips and behind her neck. She twisted around to find Colton Harris walking toward her—no shoes, no shirt, wide smile. She rolled her eyes to stifle the flutter in her stomach that she got whenever he was around. She twisted toward him, taking in the smooth gait of his walk, the olive bare chest, and the square of his jaw, a pang hitting her right in the gut.

“Whatcha doin’?” he asked, plopping down beside her, those dark-brown eyes with gold flecks sparkling as he took her in.

She set the towel back down beside her on the dock.

“It’s Sunday. Don’t you have to pack to go back home?”

Leigh sighed. “I don’t want to,” she replied honestly, turning her gaze to the broad lake in front of her. If she looked at Colton too long, she might change her mind about leaving.
