A New Light (Mount Desert Island, #7) / Mount Desert Island (ePub)

It's New Year's Eve in Bar Harbor -- and the Harvey Sisters open their arms to another year of possibilities, heartache, and hope.

Kim celebrates the holidays with the Harvey Sisters. At seventy years old, she's no less wild and adventurous than she was in her twenties. In her mind, she will never get old. Everything changes on a beautiful New Year's afternoon, when she gets on her snowmobile to ride home like always -- but is run off the road and into a tree.

Everything in Kim's world goes dark. For a full month, she's trapped in a coma.

When Kim wakes up, she can't walk or talk. She is lost, afraid, and completely unlike her former self -- and unsure if she will ever find herself again.

Meanwhile, Heather's daughter, Kristine, moves to Bar Harbor after a particularly painful breakup and the loss of her business career. With nothing to do all day and nowhere to put her anxious mind, she seeks refuge in helping Kim around the house -- where she learns that she and seventy-year-old Kim have a whole lot more in common than she thought.

Day after day, Kim and Kristine fight to rebuild their lives after turmoil -- with a whole lot of brownies, tea, romantic comedies, and good conversation along the way. Kim faces months of physical therapy and relearning how to walk, while Kristine asks herself questions about where she wants her life to go, who she wants to fall in love with, and what kind of person she wants to be.

As the frigid Bar Harbor winter melts around them and blossoms into spring, both Kim and Kristine learn to love again. Kim's health rebounds, and Kristine makes a decision that will alter her life forever.

Join us for book seven of the Mount Desert Island series, an unfolding family drama of heartache, longing, and secrets on a beautiful island off the coast of Maine.
