Memorial Day, 1938: New York socialite Lily Dane has just
returned with her family to the idyllic oceanfront community
of Seaview, Rhode Island, expecting another placid summer
season among the familiar traditions and friendships that
sustained her after heartbreak.
That is, until Greenwalds decide to take up residence in
Seaview.
Nick and Budgie Greenwald are an unwelcome specter from
Lily's past: her former best friend and her former fiancé,
now recently married—an event that set off a wildfire
of gossip among the elite of Seaview, who have summered
together for generations. Budgie's arrival to restore her
family's old house puts her once more in the center of the
community's social scene, and she insinuates herself back
into Lily's friendship with an overpowering talent for
seduction...and an alluring acquaintance from their college
days, Yankees pitcher Graham Pendleton. But the ties that
bind Lily to Nick are too strong and intricate to ignore,
and the two are drawn back into long-buried dreams, despite
their uneasy secrets and many emotional obligations.
Under the scorching summer sun, the unexpected truth of
Budgie and Nick's marriage bubbles to the surface, and as a
cataclysmic hurricane barrels unseen up the Atlantic and
into New England, Lily and Nick must confront an emotional
cyclone of their own, which will change their worlds forever.
