Description

Bluey Miller lives a charmed life in Calico Bay, a small rural town on the east coast of Australia. She built her popular wholefood cafe from nothing, and it has garnered a well-deserved reputation for world foods. When her mother dies, Bluey discovers that there was far more to her mother's life than she'd realised. Why so many secrets? As she begins to unravel her mother's past, she's left wondering about their relationship. They had been so close over the years, yet now Bluey feels like she didn't know her at all. Her very identity hangs by a thread. Who am I? she wonders. Who was my mother? Seemingly insurmountable challenges lie ahead, and Bluey must face them without her mother by her side. She finds strength from her local community and daily nourishment from the welcoming atmosphere of her cafe, but is this enough? Drawing succour from the Australian bushland around her, friendships, emerging spirituality, a life-changing romance, and the memories of good mother love, Bluey must somehow find enough courage to allow the best of the past to become the foundation for her future."
