But she never returns, and shortly after high-spirited Cecily turns seven, she is sold to a traveling circus to perform as the "little sister" to glamorous bareback rider Isabelle DuMonde. With Isabelle and the rest of the circus, Cecily finally feels she's found the family she craves. But as the years go by, the cracks in her little world begin to show. And when teenage Cecily meets and falls in love with a young roustabout named Lucky, she finds her life thrown onto an entirely unexpected-and dangerous-course.  In 2015, Cecily is now 94 and living a quiet life in Minnesota, with her daughter, granddaughter, and great-grandson. But when her family decides to surprise her with an at-home DNA test, the unexpected results not only bring to light the tragic love story that Cecily has kept hidden for decades but also throw into question everything about the family she's raised and claimed as her own for nearly seventy years. Cecily and everyone in her life must now decide who they really are and what family-and forgiveness-really mean.]]></description><link>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1561738</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S26C1561738</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Baker, Ellen]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://ottawa.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1561738026</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A Novel</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780063351202/MC.GIF&amp;client=ottap&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=eBook-3407659-AH</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Summerland Cove]]></title><description><![CDATA[Lindy has the summer of a lifetime planned at her family's beloved cottage in Summerland Cove, Maine, where she's spent summers all her life and where she and her husband David met as teenagers.
