J. Courtney Sullivan meets Jennifer Weiner in this page-turning and heartfelt multi-generational debut about the smart, headstrong, and equally flawed Harris women, forging their own paths in life, set on the idyllic shores of Cape Cod. It’s the summer of 2002, and 21-year-old Sarah Harris has experienced enough heartache this past year to last a lifetime. She escapes to the solace of her aunt’s Cape Cod beach cottage to work at a swanky golf resort, and save up enough money to put herself through college and help her family’s dwindling finances.

A mother daughter generational story
Revisado: 06-25-24
A mother daughter generational story that explores family ties and giving second chances to those we love and cherish.
Summer 2002, Sarah spends the summer with her Aunt in Cape Cod to get away from the hardships of home, her father being sick, her brother getting deployed and her boyfriend breaking it off. She plans to work to make money for her last year at college but she also meets baseball player Luke and she falls in love. By the end of the summer he gets signed to play in the majors and his departure is abrupt. She tries to contact him but is unable to and then she learns she is pregnant.
Madelyn 2019 is a high school sophomore who is dating senior Connor and struggling to understand her mothers decisions. She wants to find out about her dad but her mom is tightlipped and secretive. As they continue to butt heads, her mom thinks it would be good for Madelyn to spend the summer at the Cape with her Gran. Sarah uncovers some information about her father and must decide if she wants to pursue finding him or if she should respect her mothers wishes.
I think this story will stay with me for a while. It is such a good reminder that nothing is irreparable and the people you love are never far away and will stay with you always. The characters were all going through their own struggles and they had to learn how to overcome them with the help of the people they love. The journey that they all are on was not only relatable but reminds you that everyone has to find their own way sometimes but they don't always have to do it alone. A perfect beach read!
