Publisher Description

From New York Times bestselling author Kristan Higgins comes a funny and surprising new novel about losing it all—and getting back more than you ever expected.
 
Lillie Silva knew life as an empty nester would be hard after her only child left for college, but when her husband abruptly dumps her for another woman just as her son leaves, her world comes crashing down. Besides the fact that this announcement is a complete surprise (to say the least), what shocks Lillie most is that she isn’t heartbroken. She’s furious.
 
Lillie has loved her life on Cape Cod, but as a mother, wife, and nurse-midwife, she’s used to caring for other people . . . not taking care of herself. Now, alone for the first time in her life, she finds herself going a little rogue. Is it over the top to crash her ex-husband’s wedding dressed like the angel of death? Sure! Should she release a skunk into his perfect new home? Probably not! But it beats staying home and moping.
 
She finds an unexpected ally in her glamorous sister, with whom she’s had a tense relationship all these years. And an unexpected babysitter in, of all people, Ben Hallowell, the driver in a car accident that nearly killed Lillie twenty years ago. And then there’s Ophelia, her ex-husband’s oddly lost niece, who could really use a friend.
 
It’s the end of Lillie’s life as she knew it. But sometimes the perfect next chapter surprises you . . . out of the clear blue sky.

Out of the Clear Blue Sky

I have always loved this writer since her first early writings. Humor, romance, kids, dogs. You name it, she covers it. I always rate them five stars, you will too because she’s just that good. Lately I have noticed a switch, more serious subjects, more tears than laughter, more inclusive characters. This book won’t go on my favorites list of books she’s written, but I will always buy a Kristan Higgins book, again because she’s just that good.

Out of the Clear Blue Sky

This was such a fun book to read. All the characters in the book, including the two dogs, made the book highly enjoyable. I was sorry when I reached the last page.
I will buy the next Kristan Higgins book, since I found a new favorite author.

No faking it ,

Love Kristan Higgins

Humor filled, self discoveries of families and personal relationships. KH checks all the boxes. Enjoy another one of her books you won't be able to put down until the last word. 🥰
