Evvie Drake Starts Over
of Linda Holmes (Goodreads Author)
Description
In a sleepy seaside town in Maine, recently widowed Eveleth âEvvieâ Drake rarely leaves her large, painfully empty house nearly a year after her husbandâs death in a car crash. Everyone in town, even her best friend, Andy, thinks grief keeps her locked inside, and Evvie doesnât correct them.Meanwhile, in New York City, Dean Tenney, former Major League pitcher and Andyâs childhood best friend, is wrestling with what miserable athletes living out their worst nightmares call the âyipsâ: he canât throw straight anymore, and, even worse, he canât figure out why. As the media storm heats up, an invitation from Andy to stay in Maine seems like the perfect chance to hit the reset button on Deanâs future.When he moves into an apartment at the back of Evvieâs house, the two make a deal: Dean wonât ask about Evvieâs late husband, and Evvie wonât ask about Deanâs baseball career. Rules, though, have a funny way of being brokenâand what starts as an unexpected friendship soon turns into something more. To move forward, Evvie and Dean will have to reckon with their pastsâthe friendships theyâve damaged, the secrets theyâve keptâbut in life, as in baseball, thereâs always a chanceâup until the last out.
