In Maryann McFadden's new novel, SO HAPPY TOGETHER, three generations of women come together in a way that reinvigorates all of their lives. Claire Noble is finally ready to spread her wings after being a single mom and schoolteacher for twenty years. Recently, she has also been taking care of her ageing parents, who have started to depend on her quite a lot. But now she is going to have a summer all to herself, taking a photography course on Cape Cod. However, just as she prepares to leave town and the man who will rent her house for the summer moves in, her daughter, who's been gone for over a year, shows up on her doorstep -- and she's very, very pregnant. Now Claire has to decide whether to give up her dream summer and stay home with her ailing parents and about-to-give-birth daughter, or selfishly head out to the Cape.
Her decision will delight readers, and will launch Maryann McFadden into a new realm of commercial women's fiction.
