About the book
New York Times bestselling author Lori Wilde returns to the enchanting Hobby Island with a poignant story about two estranged sisters who come together after the passing of their mother, featuring family, love, and one unforgettable summer - perfect for fans of Jill Shalvis and Susan Mallery.
Two sisters who were once close but became estranged due to their father's ambition are faced with a final wish from their mother. They are asked to come together on Hobby Island, where their mother spent her last days, to make peace.
Calista chose to leave her family after a public betrayal, while Athena stayed behind, carrying the burden of expectations and guilt. The past rears its head as they struggle to mend their relationship.
Caught in the middle is Reid Thornton, a man from Calista's past who is seeking redemption. Can she trust him again? And can she forgive Athena for the pain of the past?
As they navigate through secrets and test their loyalties, the sisters must decide whether to honor their mother's wish and rebuild their bond, or let the past destroy what little connection they have left.
