The vibrant and tender story of a young woman coming to terms with tragedy and finding the courage to love again

From the moment they meet, Elizabeth ';Olly' Marcus and Sam Bax are coconspirators. They dump Olly's boyfriend in the library, speed off on the back of Sam's motorcycle, and seal their reckless bargain with a kiss in an apple orchard. A year later, they are married. Five years after that, Olly is a widow, her last glimpse of Sam a bright white dot on the horizon as he sailed into a storm off the coast of Maine.

At the age of twenty-seven, Olly must begin again. She has lost an accomplice, but Sam's parents have lost a son, and his brother, Patrick, has lost his best friend and the one person who truly understood him. The bonds of family are both a comfort and a burden to Olly as she tries to find a way to live with her grief and accept her role in her daredevil husband's fate. Eventually she rediscovers her own sense of adventure, and with a newfound strength, she pursues a deep and abiding love that is the greatest surprise of her life.

Told with compassion, honesty, and humor,Shine On, Bright & Dangerous Objectis an unforgettable story of love and loss.
