From the acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of The Idea of Love and Driftwood Summer comes a story about women who spent their childhood summers in a small Southern town that harbors secrets as lush as the marshes surrounding it... Where a tidal river meets the ocean sits the house that shaped Bonny Blankenship's most treasured memories--of the summers spent with her best friend, Lainey McKay. Known as the Summer Sisters, they read, swam, and wished for happy-ever-afters amid the sand dunes and oak trees draped with Spanish moss. . . until the night that changed everything, the night that Lainey's mother disappeared. Now, in her late forties, Bonny is desperate to clear her head after a tragic mistake threatens her career as an emergency room doctor, and her marriage crumbles around her. With her troubled teenage daughter, Piper, in tow, she goes back to the beloved river house, where she is soon joined by Lainey and her two young children. During lazy summer days and magical nights, they reunite with bookshop owner, Mimi, who is tangled with the past and its mysteries. As the three women cling to a fragile peace, buried secrets and long-ago loves return like the tide. READERS GUIDE INSIDE Less
