“Livvie and Page were already there when I arrived, and the place smelled like heaven. Livvie’s meatloaf was in the oven along with baked potatoes, and broccoli was cut and ready to go in the pot. I gave my pregnant sister a hug. “Where’s Sonny?” “Beat. I told him I’d bring a plate of food home for him.” Most of the lobster boats in Busman’s Harbor were out of the water, tucked away in the lobsterman’s side yards, but Livvie’s husband, Sonny, was still hard at work every day on his father’s boat..., the Abby.
