In her novel At The Breakers, Mary Ann Taylor-Hall presents Jo
Sinclair, a longtime single mother of four children. Fleeing an
abusive relationship after a shocking attack, Jo finds herself in
Sea Cove, New Jersey, in front of The Breakers, a salty old hotel
in the process of renovation. Impulsively, she negotiates a job
painting the guest rooms and settles in with her youngest child,
thirteen-year-old Nick. As each room is transformed under brush and
roller, Jo finds a way to renovate herself, reclaiming a promising
life derailed by pregnancy and a forced marriage at age fourteen.
At The Breakers is a deeply felt and beautifully written novel
about forgiveness and reconciliation. In Jo's words, she is "trying
to find the right way to live" as a long-suffering woman who is put
through the fire and emerges with a chance at a full, rich life for
herself and her children, if only she has the faith to take it.
