Summary
‘Fun, thoughtful, romantic!’Ann Napolitano, Hello Beautiful and Dear Edward
A new town, a new life, a new man – get ready for the reinvention of Cece Downing . . .
Sacked from her city job and following a messy break up with her fiancé, Cece decides it’s time for a new start, which is how she ends up in a New England coastal town working as a deckhand on an oyster boat and falling for her neighbour, Morgan, a handsome shipyard worker.
But when plans for an oyster farm divide the community, and a family crisis forces her to reevaluate her choices, Cece must decide what she’s prepared to risk for the life she wants . . .
‘This novel has everything I love about a New England summer: it’s warm, fun, the people are witty, and there’s a hot guy who works in the boatyard’ Annie Hartnett, Rabbit Cake and The Road to Tender Hearts
‘An intimate coastal portrait of reinvention, tracing a woman who trades certainty for saltwater’ Weike Wang, Rental House
