One life-changing summer on Nantucket brings about exhilarating revelations for a single mother and her two grown children in this sensational novel from New York Times bestselling author Nancy Thayer.
Lisa Hawley is perfectly satisfied living on her own. Having fully recovered from a brutal divorce nearly two decades earlier, she has successfully raised her kids, Juliet and Theo, seeing them off to college and beyond. As the owner of a popular boutique on Nantucket, she’s built a fulfilling life for herself on the island where she grew up. With her beloved house in desperate need of repair, Lisa calls on Mack Whitney, a friendly - and very handsome - local contractor and fellow single parent, to do the work. The two begin to grow close, and Lisa is stunned to realize that she might be willing to open up again after all...despite the fact that Mack is ten years her junior.
Juliet and Theo worry that Mack will only break their mother’s heart - and they can’t bear to see her hurt again. Both stuck in ruts of their own, they each hope that a summer on Nantucket will provide them with the clarity they’ve been searching for. When handsome entrepreneur Ryder Hastings moves to the island to expand his environmental nonprofit, Juliet, an MIT-educated web designer, feels an immediate attraction, one her rocky love life history pushes her to deny at first. Meanwhile, free spirit Theo finds his California bliss comes to a brutal halt when a surfing injury forces him back to the East Coast. Upon his return, he has eyes only for Mack’s daughter, Beth, to whom he is bound by an unspeakable tragedy from high school. Can they overcome their past?
As the season unfolds, a storm threatens to shatter the peace of the golden island, forcing Lisa, Juliet, and Theo to decide whether their summer romances are destined for something more profound. Nancy Thayer dazzles again in this delightful tale of family, a reminder that sometimes, finding our way back home can bring us unexpected gifts.

This is the third book of hers I've tried and I haven't enjoyed any of them.
The love scenes in this book were just uncomfortable for me. If a man said any of the things to me that these men in this book said, I'd run as fast as I could.
Narration:
I'm not a huge KR fan so that probably didn't help matters at all.
Ugh.....

It didnt require any deep thought. or it wasn't thought provoking.
over all I like the story for that reason. Sometimes you want to read a story that is light and fun. Nothing toooo deep.
And this story was it.
The characters were all immature for their ages which got on my nerves but I guess you had to have some drama somewhere. Because other than that there werent any drama or conflict.
I am a sucker for happy endings and this did not disappoint. The ending was to neatly wrapped together but hey it was a easy beach summer read.
So over all I love this story and would read it again just in case I missed something.
