The Secret of Everything by Barbara O'Neal
5.0
FirstReads: This is the best book I have read in a while. There is something for everyone: Mystery, Romance, Food, Dogs, Beautiful Scenery. What more could you ask for?
Tessa is injured in a work accident, nearly drowned. This stirs up memories of her long buried childhood. As she recovers from her physical injuries, she is unable to heal as quickly from the emotional ones. Much to her father's dismay, she returns to the town where she was born, in the New Mexico mountains. There she meets many colorful characters, including Vince, a man as lonely and lost as she is, his 3 daughters who are also a bit lost. There are the members of the commune where she was raised the first few years of her life, Vita at 100 Breakfasts and her parole assistant Annie. Such a great cast of characters that bring the story to life, in each of their voices.
A must read for anyone. Fans of Kris Radish will really enjoy Barbara O'Neal.
