Ashley Farley has written Marsh Point Book #3, Songbird’s Second Chance, which is a profoundly moving family drama. This book is a dynamic addition to the series. No one writes about dysfunctional family dynamics better than Ashley Farley! What I like most about this book is there are no dull moments from the first page to the last. Farley based her series on a dysfunctional family terrorized by their abusive alcoholic mother and their father, who would not stand up to her.
Farley introduces readers to the last sibling to grow up at Marsh Point, Savannah. Savannah had a beautiful voice, and everyone thought she would become a professional singer. Thirty years ago, her mother orchestrated for Savannah’s newborn daughter to be taken away right after birth. When Savannah woke up to discover her baby was gone, she ran away and has been gone for thirty long years! She moved as far from Marsh Point as she could go (Washington State), but recently, her circumstances have changed, and she thinks maybe it might be a good time to go home for a visit.
Harper Boone has never felt like she measured up to her mother’s expectations or that they had much in common. Her mother was a brilliant criminal defense attorney, and Harper was a gifted singer with an eye for decorating. She became a paralegal to satisfy her mother, but she never enjoyed it. While going through her mother’s files after her sudden death, Harper found a piece of paper that would prove to be life-changing. She finds a sealed envelope containing a worn scrap of yellow flannel, an address in a small town she’s never heard of, and her adoption papers! She decides to throw caution to the wind and check this family out.
Farley’s plot will have readers on the edge of their seats as they wait to see what happens next in this family drama. At each family gathering, conditions are right for explosive behavior caused by pent-up emotions, memories, and horrors from the past. Inviting family members over without permission can cause unwanted drama, and being in Marsh Point can stir up all kinds of old feelings. There is also the opportunity to discover a new branch of the family. What will happen if they discover Harper is the missing child? Will this cause more drama or healing? What about Harper’s Dad? Who is he? Will he want a relationship with Harper? You will not want to miss this one!… (altro)
