This is my second Elin Hilderbrand book and it was just as lovely as the first one. 

This book is all about family drama on Nantucket. It was giving "Little Fires Everywhere" & "Big Little Lies" vibes but with East Coast flair. There are secrets, summer loves, and big moments in 1969 that gave it a fun retro vibe. 

Overall I enjoyed this read & it was great for summer reading on the beach.
