Book Summary
The New York Times bestseller and ultimate beach
read from the author of Second Chance
Nan
Powell is a free-spirited, sixty-five-year-old widow who’s
not above skinny-dipping in her neighbors’ pools when
they’re away and who dearly loves her Nantucket home. But
when she discovers that the money she thought would last
forever is dwindling, she realizes she must make drastic
changes to save her beloved house. So Nan takes out an ad:
Rooms to rent for the summer in a beautiful old Nantucket
home with water views and direct access to the
beach.
Slowly people start moving in to the
house, filling it with noise, laughter, and with tears. As
the house comes alive again, Nan finds her family and
friends expanding. Her son comes home for the summer, and
then an unexpected visitor turns all their lives upside
down. As she did so masterfully in her New York Times
bestseller Second Chance, Jane Green once again
proves herself one of the preeminent writers of contemporary
women’s fiction.
