Synopsis
For fans of Debbie Macomber and Elin Hilderbrand, a new series of heartwarming beach-read novels set in a picturesque fishing village on Martha&’s Vineyard, with all the seaside charm and small-town heart that readers expect from Jean Stone&’s previous Vineyard novels, and a new cast of characters for readers to fall in love with. The quaint, historic fishing village of Menemsha is a side of Martha&’s Vineyard that tourists don&’t always see. Maddie Clarke&’s late mother was born on the Vineyard, and Maddie hazily recalls childhood visits to her Grandma Nancy&’s cottage above Menemsha Harbor. Now divorced with a teenage son, Maddie is awaiting news of a tenureship at her Massachusetts college when a letter arrives that could change everything . . . It turns out Grandma Nancy didn&’t die long ago, as Maddie believed. In fact, Nancy just passed away at 89—and left Maddie her gray-shingled cottage. Maddie intends her visit to Martha&’s Vineyard to be a brief one, just long enough to settle the estate and sell the cottage. But on arriving in Menemsha, she finds far more than memories . . . There are other family secrets waiting to be uncovered, and a Native American heritage Maddie knew nothing about. Most surprising of all, there is the glimmer of a very different future—a chance to connect with her people and find herself, and perhaps find love, on this beautiful, celebrated island . . . Praise for Jean Stone&’s Vineyard Novels&“Filled with heart. . . . Perfect for long summer days. For fans of DebbieMacomber or Elin Hilderbrand.&” —Booklist&“Lie down on the couch, put a pillow under your head and enjoy the ride.&” —The Vineyard Gazette&“Filled with themes of compassion, understanding, and forgiveness. . . . Highly recommended.&” —Fresh Fiction
