Opis

Friendships forgotten... Loves lost... Summers on an island off the coast of Maine... Can they recapture what they once had? After years of being away from each other, is it possible to go back again to that simple time and place? Mrs. Katie Brewster wants to hold onto the good times of the past. But everything's slipping away too fast. She's hid her Alzheimer's secret from her favorites long enough. She brings them back to the island for her landmark birthday. Now, she has one last chance to keep them close and the love they share in her heart, if not her mind, forever. But can she convince them to stay? Gen cannot forgive herself for one terrible incident years ago. Thomas (Mac) MacKenzie isn't angry at Gen, just the unfairness of what happened. Together again on the island, will they be able to move beyond their personal pain? Can Mac ever get back the woman he's loved for decades? Elliott MacKenzie's never left the ones he's loved behind, but they have left him. Now, he's sucker punched with the news that he may end up without Mrs. B. How can he ever come to terms with losing his best friend? Cissy's struggled with body issues growing up. She's turned her assets to her advantage the last few years. Now, dealing with the devastating news of having breast cancer and the coming after effects on her body, she longs to be a real woman one last time. Returning to the island, she seduces Elliott, the man she's been crushing on for years. Quickly, she discovers, he wants more. But, if she can't face the loss of what she feels makes her the woman she is now, how can he? Richard (Dewey) Dewhurst III is right where he wants to be, living high and loving it, or so he thinks until he goes back to the island. He's about to have a wake-up call. Does Dewey have it in him to do the right thing? Meredith has it all, but doesn't want it. Can the once Ms. Perfect have the courage to create the imperfect life she longs for in the one place she thought she never could? Each summer they'd gather on the island beginning in childhood. Through the years, they change and grow, come of age together, and then go their separate ways. Now, after years of being apart, they find their way back to the island. Will they discover what they had and whether or not they want it back again?
