Chasing Sunsets
Book 1 of the Cedar Key series
385 pages · First published 2011
Divorced mother Kimberly Tucker returns to Cedar Key while her sons spend part of the summer with their father, hoping the island of her childhood will give her room to understand what went wrong with her life. Instead, familiar places revive memories of first love, family wounds, and choices she has never fully resolved. The slower rhythm of the island forces Kim to examine resentment she has carried into the present and the possibility that old mistakes need not control what comes next. Eva Marie Everson opens the Cedar Key series with contemporary Christian women’s fiction about forgiveness, family, and finding a future in a place filled with the past.
