Description
Mary Ann Riversβs Burnside Series returns with My Only Sunshine, a heart-rending and satisfying romantic novella featuring a musician who appeared as a minor character in Laugh.
John Lake owes his label an albumβand has for months. Alone in his farmhouse studio outside of Lakefield, Ohio, he hears the music, but he wonβt write it down. All the songs remind him of her.
Fifteen years ago, Mallory Evans was a fairy-haired warrior-poet. John couldnβt figure out why no one in high school noticed. He noticed, and he came to her window every evening before darkness came and the private violence of her home life threatened. Then, inevitably, one terrifying night broke the sweet spell between them.
John hasnβt seen Mallory since, but heβs looked for herβin his audiences, in his dreams. Now he decides that if he canβt find the inspiration to finish an album, he can at least find Mallory and finish what has always been between them.
Riversβs stories have been hailed by New York Times bestselling author Grace Burrowes as βsuperbly writtenβ and listed among Library Journalβs best ebooks of the year. With My Only Sunshine, Rivers gives readers another glimpse into the rich contemporary world of Lakefield, Ohio, and the Burnsides.
