 96"><em>Evvie Drake Starts Over</em></a> by Linda Holmes. Copies are avail
 able at the Main Library\, or call to request pick-up at the Eastgate Bran
 ch.</p>\n<p>In a sleepy seaside town in Maine\, recently widowed Eveleth &
 ldquo\;Evvie&rdquo\; Drake rarely leaves her large\, painfully empty house
  nearly a year after her husband&rsquo\;s death in a car crash. Everyone i
 n town\, even her best friend\, Andy\, thinks grief keeps her locked insid
 e\, and Evvie doesn&rsquo\;t correct them.</p>\n<p>Meanwhile\, in New York
  City\, Dean Tenney\, former Major League pitcher and Andy&rsquo\;s childh
 ood best friend\, is wrestling with what miserable athletes living out the
 ir worst nightmares call the &ldquo\;yips&rdquo\;: he can&rsquo\;t throw s
 traight anymore\, and\, even worse\, he can&rsquo\;t figure out why. As th
 e media storm heats up\, an invitation from Andy to stay in Maine seems li
 ke the perfect chance to hit the reset button on Dean&rsquo\;s future.</p>
 \n<p>When he moves into an apartment at the back of Evvie&rsquo\;s house\,
  the two make a deal: Dean won&rsquo\;t ask about Evvie&rsquo\;s late husb
 and\, and Evvie won&rsquo\;t ask about Dean&rsquo\;s baseball career. Rule
 s\, though\, have a funny way of being broken&mdash\;and what starts as an
  unexpected friendship soon turns into something more. To move forward\, E
 vvie and Dean will have to reckon with their pasts&mdash\;the friendships 
 they&rsquo\;ve damaged\, the secrets they&rsquo\;ve kept&mdash\;but in lif
 e\, as in baseball\, there&rsquo\;s always a chance&mdash\;up until the la
 st out.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>-------</p>\n<p>AAPLD embraces inclusivity in its p
