About Sand in My Eyes
Twenty years ago, Anna Hott thought she could control everything-her crumbling marriage, her demanding children, her hectic life-by quitting her high-paced job in New York City and moving her family to tranquil Sanibel Island, Florida. But she brought her untamed emotions, her rage toward her cheating husband, and her yearning to write a novel with her. When her husband and children left the house for a week, Anna thought at last she would get her household, her novel, and her mind in order.
Instead, her elderly neighbor Fedelina Aurelio knocked on her door bearing flowers and homespun wisdom, and when Fedelina’s recently divorced son arrived, Anna had a test of passion and a test of truth.
Now, with an empty nest, Anna Hott pulls out the incomplete manuscript she started that memorable week and-to find closure for her life and a conclusion for her novel-travels to Indiana to visit Fedelina who lives in a nursing home.
Sand in My Eyes is both a story about the tension between motherhood and personal dreams as well as a story about women across generations inspiring one another.

Thank you for the giveaway. Ms. Lemmon’s “Sand in My Eyes” seems to be right up my alley. It’s time that someone wrote a book with a heroine who was older than 25!
Also, Sanibel Island is the only place in Florida I’d even consider living. It’s so beautiful and serene.

I tried to win an ARC of this book on goodreads.com so I am so excited you are running this giveaway! It sounds like a wonderful summer read and, since I live in Florida, I can relate to the setting and can go to the beach to be among the houses with stilts to feel immersed in the story!
