ON LITTLE WINGS

A lifetime of family secrets. One summer to find the truth.

"It felt as if I was coming back to myself from very far away. As far as the ocean... I needed to touch the water more than I needed food. Somewhere in all this beauty, I would meet the truth. Tonight Sarah would share the story I came two thousand miles to hear."

Jennifer is an only child, and so were her parents—at least that’s what she thinks, until she finds an old photo in the back of one of her mother’s books. The woman in the photo looks just like Jennifer, but her mother refuses to talk about it. Compelled to find answers, Jennifer's quest takes her from the wheat fields of Nebraska to the fishing town of Smithport, Maine, home to the one person who can help her solve this family secret—the woman in the photo. But Jennifer learns that it takes a village to piece together her mother's story. She needs help from Nathan, the genius from across the cove; Little, the elderly town matriarch; and The Jacks, three fisherman who dabble in pyrotechnics. And as Jennifer discovers the lost chapters of her mother’s life, she begins to write a few of her own.

Regina Sirois lives in the golden wheat fields of Olathe, Kansas. ON LITTLE WINGS is her first novel.
