Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Three sisters - responsible Riley, vivacious Maisy, and fun-loving Adalee - reunite to celebrate their mother's birthday and save the family's beach-community bookstore. But summer also marks the return of Mack Logan whose choice of Maisy over Riley years ago destroyed the special closeness between the sisters.
Now Riley, a single mom who doubts that any man can live up to her idealized image of Mack, is hiding a shattering secret. Maisy, a California designer, still blames Riley for ruining her one true love. And Adalee resents the family's intrusion into her summer plans. All three will be forced to confront the conflicts that tore them apart and the bounds of love and loyalty that still draw them together.
"Readers who crave books that sparkle with the sheer beauty of language can rely on [Patti Callahan Henry]." - Booklist
Three sisters -- responsible Riley, vivacious Maisy, and fun-loving Adalee -- reunite to celebrate their mother's birthday and save the family's beach-community bookstore. But summer also marks the return of Mack Logan whose choice of Maisy over Riley years ago destroyed the special closeness between the sisters. Now Riley, a single mom who doubts that any man can live up to her idealized image of Mack, is hiding a shattering secret. Maisy, a California designer, still blames Riley for ruining her one true love. And Adalee resents the family's intrusion into her summer plans. All three will be forced to confront the conflicts that tore them apart and the bounds of love and loyalty that still draw them together. Garnering comparisons to Anne Rivers Siddons and Pat Conroy, Patti Callahan Henry's, lush, lyrical voice draws readers into a rich, engaging novel of three sisters -- their loves, their rivalries, and a summer that changes their lives.
