Discussion Questions

Written by the Author:

1. What symptoms of "empty nest" does Nina exhibit in the book? Do they mirror feelings you've had?

2. Owning and running the Inn at Willow Lake was Nina's dream, but it didn't work out for her. Did she have to settle for less, or did she get something she never expected? Talk about expectations v. reality when it comes to a long-held dream.

3. Unexpected pregnancy is a theme in this book. Each woman who experiences it, past or present, handles it differently--Nina, Sophie Bellamy and Daisy. How did each handle it, and which one seems, to you, to have the best prospects for success? Why?

4. Greg walked away from a lucrative career after his divorce. Was that decision understandable and how is it working for him? How is he doing as the father of a pregnant teenager? How is this going to affect his relationship with Nina?

5. Sophie Bellamy, Greg's ex-wife, shows up at a key moment in the story. Did she strike you as unsympathetic or understandable? Why?

6. Daisy is drawn to Julian Gastineaux, but she is also surprised by Logan O'Donnell's response to her pregnancy. How might these storylines play out in the future?

7. The past and present sections of the book are marked by epigraph pages with historical facts about the Inn, and household tips from an innkeeper. Share a tip or recipe of your own with the group.
