Publisher's summary

Jake wants to see for himself whether his mother is having a mid-life crisis or a later-in-life adventure. He's betting on the second.

Mallie’s oldest son checked up on her not long after she returned to the canyon and the home she grew up in…the home where she raised her children until a tragedy forced her to make the difficult decision to leave. Now her youngest son is on his way...

Jake Westin is returning to the canyon where he grew up. It’s been ten years since the last time he was there. He can still vividly remember the circumstances that led to his family’s departure all those years ago. It wasn’t something he thought of often. Who would want to?

Just as much as he wanted to see how his mother was doing since her return to the canyon he was also looking forward to seeing Lizzie. When he was a child the two of them had gone on all kinds of quests together for lizards and anything else that moved, searched for the buried treasure Lizzie swore was to be found somewhere in the canyon, and spent hours staring at the stars and picking out those that made up constellations of their own making.

He was also curious about his mother’s other neighbor in their small corner of the canyon. Unlike Lizzie who had walked away from the glitter and fame of the city that was spread out below the canyon, Clay Tobin was just beginning to make his mark there according to both of his sisters.

And he wanted to talk to his mother…he needed to hear her reasons for coming back after all these years instead of taking his brother and sister’s assumptions as gospel. More importantly…he wanted to understand.

Years ago Mallie Westin left her home because she felt she had no choice. Now years later, the choice is hers. The Heart of the Canyon series is about the strength of family, the endurance of friendship, and the unwavering and unconditional longing for home…and all it means. Everything We Are is the second in the series…can be read alone but the series is best when read in sequence.

If you enjoy women’s fiction, stories about families who struggle through real-life events, characters who aren’t perfect but do the best they can, the Heart of the Canyon may be the series for you.
