This book is another awesome book by Elin Hilderbrand. The story begins with a family and a guest crossing the ferry into Nantucket for the summer. The Newton family has just lost Arch their husband and father. The guest Marcus has lost his mom to the penal system for murder. The Newton twins have different ideas about Marcus spending the summer with them. Winnie is so excited to spend time with him. Her father was the attorney for his mother and it was actually his invitation for Marcus to visit. Garrett is upset for this boy being on the family vacation.
It is heartwarming story that shows how people can deal with adversity and then put their lives back together.
