The life of Summer James has been anything but easy. The years she spent in foster care have haunted her for as long as she can remember. Now, in her early thirties, she feels light years away from finding a sense of belonging in her world, especially when she is constantly triggered into traumatic memories from her past.When Summer finds unexpected connections with the people at the piano bar where she works, she starts to believe that she may have the ability to heal and make her own family. Will the past hold her back from achieving her dreams? Will she learn to forgive, let go, and love herself?Or will Summer only find peace when pigs fly?To read Summer’s story is to love her. You will root for her, cry with her, and laugh too. You may even discover a little bit of her within yourself. Equally heart wrenching and heartwarming, When Pigs Fly is a story of grit, perseverance and self-acceptance. Told in dual timelines, the reader gets to know Summer James through her childhood and adolescence in foster care and through the present day as she muddles through healing from her trauma. Songs and sounds trigger her into flashbacks from the past and hinder her from truly healing and living her life to the fullest. It’s connection that Summer needs; what she is desperate for, and it’s up to her to find it.
