The story follows Julia Cloud, a middle-aged woman facing uncertainty and loneliness after her mother's passing. As Julia contemplates her future, her life unexpectedly brightens when her youthful nephew and niece, Leslie and Allison, arrive, inviting her to become a mother figure for them as they begin their journey in college. The opening of the book introduces Julia Cloud's struggles with the expectations and responsibilities placed upon her by family, particularly her domineering sister, Ellen. Julia is torn between her long-standing duty to others and the longing for independence and love. Her internal conflict is presented vividly through her interactions with Ellen, who insists that Julia should come live with her, offering little empathy for Julia’s grief and needs. This dilemma is compounded by Julia's surprise at receiving a telegram from her niece and nephew, which brings a rush of joyful memories from her past. Their arrival becomes a turning point in Julia's life as they propose a plan that could open a new chapter of love, companionship, and belonging. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
