The Summer of Us

<p>The little beach house on Martha's Vineyard has a rickety porch and no closets but the gorgeous location is unbeatable—and more than enough to entice three total strangers into a house share for the summer. . .<br /><br />At first the only thing Gincy Danielle and Clare have in common is a desire to spend weekends away from the city. No-nonsense Gincy has worked hard to leave her small-town childhood behind. Danielle grew up with every advantage and is looking for a husband who'll fit neatly into her pampered life while Clare is enjoying a last burst of independence before marrying her ambitious fiancé. Yet lazy beach days and warm conversation-filled nights forge an unexpected connection. And over the course of one eventful summer Gincy Danielle and Clare will discover that friendship isn't always measured in how well you know a person's past—but in opening each other's eyes to everything the future could hold. . .<br /><br />Nostalgia over real-life friendships lost and regained pulls readers into the story. –<em>USA Today</em> on <em>Summer Friends</em><br /><br />It does the trick as a beach book and provides a touristy taste of Maine's seasonal attractions. —<em>Publishers Weekly</em> on <em>The Family Beach House</em></p>
