About the Book

When master carpenter Barry Goldstein loses his wife Ellen to a sudden heart attack, he finds himself drawn to Brooklyn's mysterious Smiling Dog Café, where the coffee tastes like memory and painted dogs on the walls seem to watch with knowing eyes. Meanwhile, his estranged sister Leah has rebuilt her life in Connecticut after years of addiction and loss, including the death of her husband Jaime and their unborn child. After fifteen years of silence, a chance meeting at Ellen's funeral cracks open the door to reconciliation. As they cautiously rebuild their relationship, Barry and Leah uncover a family history of patterns repeated through generations: love and loss, staying and leaving, building walls and tearing them down. When they discover their father had a sister named Temmy who died as a child-a sister whose existence was never mentioned, whose grave was abandoned when the family moved from Connecticut to Newark-they embark on a journey to find her final resting place and reclaim this forgotten piece of their history. Under the guidance of Betty Martinez, the enigmatic owner of the Smiling Dog Café, and Molly, the labrador retriever who seems to appear when she's needed most, Barry and Leah begin to understand that what they truly inherited wasn't just their grandfather's carpentry skills or their mother's restlessness, but the capacity to rebuild what's broken-including their relationship with each other. "The Bridge Between Us," the second book in the Smiling Dog Café series, weaves together multiple timelines and perspectives to create a rich tapestry of family history, exploring how the wounds of one generation can echo in the next, and how healing sometimes requires both letting go and holding on. This deeply moving story about siblings finding their way back to each other reminds us that the strongest structures are often built in the places that once broke apart.
