Meghan's life and marriage are perfect -- until she discovers her husband's dark past. This thrusts her into a world of secrets, confusion, and previous resentments, leaving her to question: can anyone ever outrun themselves?

Meghan Coleman has been head-over-heels for her husband, Hugo, for twenty-seven years. But one afternoon a few weeks before Thanksgiving, she discovers a box of letters from his ex-fiancé, which illustrate a smoldering love, one he never mentioned in all their years together. Not long after that, she learns her children already knew about the ex-fiancé -- and kept it a secret. Tormented, she finds her world crumbling around her. Who can she trust?

In downtown Oak Bluffs, Daniel owns a failing bookstore, struggles to sign the divorce papers for his wife, and cares for his ailing mother, who suffers from dementia. Growing up, his mother was manipulative and cruel to him and his sister, resulting in both of them fleeing the island as soon as they could. The difference between himself and his sister, of course, is that he actually kept in contact with his mother and returned when she couldn't care for herself anymore. Lisa, on the other hand, abandoned everyone -- and they never heard from her again.

Through a chance encounter, Meghan and Daniel find one another in the midst of their private sorrows and support one another through thick and thin. It's been a long time since either of them had a friend they could count on quite like this -- and neither of them can believe their luck.

But more than that: they're far more connected than they think. Very soon, they find their stories coming together in a climactic ending -- one that will ultimately change Meghan and Daniel's families forever.

Autumn Skies and Pumpkin Pies is book five of The Coleman Series, a heart-wrenching yet hopeful family drama that unfolds between the glittering shores of Nantucket Island and Martha's Vineyard.
