The Lullaby Sky
by Carolyn Brown
Hannah should feel a little bit of guilt. After all her marriage had just ended
in divorce but all she felt was relief.
After seven years of misery and abuse, it’s all over—Hannah O’Malley is officially divorced. Hallelujah. It’s like every Christmas in her life all rolled up into one glorious
day. Not only does Hannah get to keep her grandmother’s spacious old house, but she
has full custody of her sparky five-year-old daughter. All Hannah has to do now is
put the past behind her.
And now that she’s free, she wants to make a difference. With the help of her warm,
close-knit circle of friends—including her high school crush, Travis Wilson—Hannah begins turning her home into a safe house for other women who’ve endured the pain she’s known. But even as life and laughter return to Hannah’s home, she’s haunted by the memory of her dangerously unstable ex. With a second chance at love on the horizon, Hannah must face down her past in order to let the sunshine back into her life.
About The Author
New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Carolyn Brown was born in
Texas and raised in southern Oklahoma. These days she and her husband make their home in Davis, Oklahoma, a small town of less than three thousand people where
everyone knows everyone, knows what they are doing and with whom, and read the
weekly newspaper to see who got caught.
A plaque hangs on her office wall that says I know the voices are not real but they have such great ideas. That is her motto and muse as she goes through the days with quirky characters in her head, telling their stories, one by one, and loving her job.
She has been married almost half a century to a retired English teacher that she calls Mr. B and he does not read her books before they are published because she cannot afford a divorce. They have three grown children.—and enough grandchildren to keep them busy and young.
When Carolyn is not writing she likes to sit in the back yard and watch the two
tom cats protect the yard from all kinds of wicked varmints like crickets, other cats,
spiders and blue jays.
