Mehr zum Buch

Two lifelong friends, a bookshop by the beach, and a summer that could change everything. Jess, a high-profile lawyer in Charleston, retreats to her childhood home in Cape Cod after discovering her husband Parker's infidelity. Accompanied by her thirty-year-old daughter Caitlin, who is searching for her passion, Jess seeks solace in good food, wine, and the company of her best friend, Allison. Allison, facing a career low after two decades as an editor, finds herself at a crossroads. With her magazine struggling, she contemplates her future while maintaining a friendship with her ex-husband Chris. Her daughter Julia has found fulfillment running her own artisanal jewelry shop, something Allison yearns for. When Allison learns that the local bookstore is for sale, a long-held dream reignites, and with Jess's support, they set a plan in motion. The childhood memories tied to the bookstore become a reality as they reopen it and an adjacent coffee shop for the community. Together, they embrace the possibilities of romance, strengthen the bonds between mothers and daughters, and discover the magic of second chances.
