Wasn t the reality that pieces of blue were always there, waiting to break through? When Paul Hill drowns in a surfing accident, his broken hearted wife, Lindsey, and their three children are left in huge financial trouble. Once Paul s life insurance finally comes through, Lindsey impulsively uses the money to buy a charmingly ramshackle motel in Hawai i, hoping for a fresh start. Teenage Olivia quickly develops a crush on a handsome but monosyllabic skateboarder. Twelve year old Carlos reinvents himself as a popular kid named Carl. And Sena, the youngest, will do whatever it takes to protect her beloved motel chickens. But while the kids adjust, Lindsey is flailing, trying to pretend she knows how to bring a motel and herself back to life. Then a handsome stranger rolls into the motel parking lot, and she s surprised to feel a long dormant part of herself stirring. She accepts his offer to help, unaware that he may have secrets of his own. And all the while, out in the Pacific, the trade winds are fiercely blowing. Funny and tender, full of twists and turns and heart, Pieces of Blue is a portrait of an irresistible family learning to start over.
