Against the picturesque coastal Maine setting that she evokes so well, bestselling author Holly Chamberlin creates a heartfelt story of family bonds and new beginnings . . . Β It came as no surprise to anyone in Yorktide when glamorous Carol Ascher fled the little Maine town for New York City. While Carol found success as an interior designer, her younger sister, Bonnie, stayed behind, embracing marriage and motherhood. She even agreed to take in Carolβs teenage daughter during a tumultuous patch. Now both their girls are grown and Bonnie, recently widowed, is anticipating the day sheβll retire to Ferndean House, the nineteenth-century family home on the rocky Maine coast. Β But forty-five years after leaving Yorktide, Carol suddenly announces that sheβs moving backβinto Ferndean. Bonnie is indignant. Sheβs the one who kept the homestead in order and tended to their dying mother. Now Carol expects to simply buy her out? As far as Bonnie is concerned, Ferndean is part of their heritageβnot just another of Carolβs improvement projects, to be torn apart and remade according to her whim. Β The entire Ascher family is in flux, uncovering secrets that upend their relationships. Carolβs longing to be welcomed home is fueled by a painful truth sheβs carried for years. It will take an extraordinaryΒ summerβin a remarkable placeβto lead these women back to each other, buoyed by the tides of friendship and forgiveness.
