While her husband is parading around town with a woman young enough to be their daughter, she is stuck on an island in the middle of nowhere with a grouchy old uncle and an inn crumbling to the ground around her. This isn't the summer she expected, but it might just be the summer she needs. When Tana Martin catches her Hollywood executive husband with a sultry Italian actress, her friend suggests that she needs a little "you time" - meaning swimsuits, Mai Tais, and golden-sand beaches, not a cantankerous old man who needs a caretaker and a family inn that has fallen into a state of disrepair. She should be celebrating her silver wedding anniversary. Instead, she's gearing up for the worst summer of her life. But Dolphin Bay, the small island off the coast of Maine where Tana spent many of her childhoods, has more than a few surprises in store. Amid the sea-breeze days and starry nights, old friendships are rekindled, new flames are ignited, and Tana begins to realize that the life she left behind might not be the one she craves after all. Visit the beautiful island of Dolphin Bay, where friendship, hope, love, and pastries are plentiful. This small-town women's fiction series is perfect for readers of all ages.
