About The Same Bright Stars:
From the author of A Little Hope, an uplifting and emotionally resonant novel set in a Delaware beach town about a local restaurant owner at a turning point...
Three generations of Schmidts have run their family’s namesake beachfront restaurant and Jack has been at the helm since the death of his father. Jack puts the demands of the restaurant above all else. He can't remember the last time he sat on the beach or even enjoyed a moment to himself.
Meanwhile, the DelDine group has been snapping up beloved eateries along this stretch of coast and are pursuing Jack with a very generous offer to take over Schmidt’s.
Jack craves companionship and maybe even a family. He wonders if closing the door on the restaurant might open a new window for him. But who would he be without Schmidt’s, and can he trust that DelDine will continue to employ his staff and honor his family’s legacy?
When Jack receives startling news from the past, he begins to reshape his life and forge unexpected new friendships. But will he really let go of the very things that have defined him?
