About this ebook
In a beautiful New England beach town, three sisters rediscover what it means to be a family in this heartfelt novel by the author of Seashell Season.
When Poppy Higgins left Yorktide, Maine, for Boston, she pictured future visits home as brief diversions from her real life in the big city. But fate had different ideas. At twenty-five, Poppy is back in Yorktide to care for her two teenage sisters following their father's death.
Sixteen-year-old Daisy resents Poppy's long absence and chafes under her fumbling efforts to be a parent. Violet, now thirteen, is a virtual stranger to her oldest sister. The once happy family now seem adrift, and Poppy longs to escape her responsibilities. But when the sisters meet Evie, an enigmatic newcomer to Yorktide, the young woman will be an unlikely catalyst in their journey back to each other. For as Poppy discovers the deep loss in Evie's life, she awakens to the truth about her own—and about the home she tried to leave behind.

Summer with my sisters. Could of been 125 pages shorter. Some areas dragged on and on. Good but not great.
