Publisher's Summary

The brand new novel from New York Times best-selling author Barbara Delinsky. 

One phone call is all it takes to lure Real-Estate Photographer Mallory Aldiss back to her family Rhode Island beach home. 

It's been 20 years since she's been gone - running from the scandal that destroyed her parents' marriage, drove her and her two sisters apart and crushed her relationship with her first love. But going home is fraught with emotional baggage: memories, mysteries and secrets abound. 

Mal's 13-year-old daughter, Joy, has never been to the place where Mal's life was shaped and is desperate to go. Fatherless, she craves family and especially wants to spend time with the grandfather she barely knows. 

In just seven watershed days on the Rhode Island coast, three women will test the bonds of sisterhood, friendship and family and discover the role that love and memory plays in defining their lives.

Spoilt by narration

I don't know whether this is a good story because I can't get through the narration. The main character is easy to listen to but other voices are sharp, ear-splitting, disproportionately loud and aggressive and totally wreck my listening experience. So uncomfortable to listen to. I'm only giving one star because I can't give none

I can't carry on with it.
