The Sunrise on Half Moon Bay Book Review

I have been reading a lot at night and in the morning so I go through a few books but I think that I was a little over excited when "shopping" at the library reserve system.  I have piles and piles of books that I have not gotten to read.  I have a bunch of books that came in at the same time and the library just announced that books are going to start having a due date soon which means that I have a bunch of books that don't have any renewals because there is a waiting list.  Sunrise on Half Moon Bay by Robyn Carr the first book that I read because I was on my mission to get those books read that I couldn't renew!

Sometimes the happiness we’re looking for has been there all along…

Adele and Justine have never been close. Born twenty years apart, Justine was already an adult when Addie was born. The sisters love each other but they don’t really know each other.

When Addie dropped out of university to care for their ailing parents, Justine, a successful lawyer, covered the expenses. It was the best arrangement at the time but now that their parents are gone, the future has changed dramatically for both women.

Addie had great plans for her life but has been worn down by the pressures of being a caregiver and doesn’t know how to live for herself. And Justine’s success has come at a price. Her marriage is falling apart despite her best efforts.

Neither woman knows how to start life over but both realize they can and must support each other the way only sisters can. Together they find the strength to accept their failures and overcome their challenges. Happiness is within reach, if only they have the courage to fight for it.

Set in the stunning coastal town of Half Moon Bay, California, Robyn Carr’s new novel examines the joys of sisterhood and the importance of embracing change.

Adele is the younger sister who left college to come home and care for her parents.  She has been home for 8 years and realized that she lost her life in the process.  Justine is the older sister who is 20 years older and settled in her life as a lawyer with her stay at home husband taking care of their two teenage daughters.  It seems that life is settled for both of them until they decide that everything has to change.  Adele goes out with a friend to a restaurant and sees her brother in law kissing another woman and she feels like she needs to tell her sister.  Justine tries to collect information with the help of a private investigator and researching their accounts, she realizes that this has been going on for a long time.  Both are heart broken and starting over their lives in new and different ways.  You have to pick up the book to find out how quickly they change their lives and how that makes them feel.  This is an inspirational book to change anything you might not like about your life so that you can be happy.  It shows the importance of friends and family and how they enrich our lives.  I hope that you check out this great read and enjoy the rest of the books by this author.  I thought it was a hard book to put down and it had me wishing there was another one in the series!!
