When Savannah Bucca, an up-and-coming fashion designer, wins a coveted summer apprenticeship in Rome, at the House Of Capri—one of the most illustrious fashion houses in the world—she can only imagine how greatly it will impact her career. But as excited as she is to hone her craft and gain much-needed experience in the fashion industry, she is just as eager to put some distance between herself and the frustrating romantic complications at home. She’s known Luca Lalli her entire life. Growing up, they were practically family as their parents emigrated from Italy together as young adults and became the best of friends. As her feelings for him grew, Luca ‘s flirting did too. However, his apparent disinterest and dismissal was infuriating. She just had to accept the fact that he still sees her as nothing more than a little sister. Savannah’s trip to Italy is not just a chance to step into her future as a fashion designer or reunite her with family still living in the old country—it’s a chance to embrace the freedom and excitement of a summer away from home. And with any luck, a summer fling that will finally push Luca Lalli out of her mind, and her heart, for good.

A rollicking guided tour of one extraordinary summer, when some of the most pivotal and freakishly coincidental stories all collided and changed the way we think about modern sports The summer of 1984 was a watershed moment in the birth of modern sports when the nation watched Michael Jordan grow from college basketball player to professional athlete and star. That summer also saw ESPN's rise to media dominance as the country's premier sports network and the first modern, commercialized, profitable Olympics. Magic Johnson and Larry Bird's rivalry raged, Martina Navratilova and John McEnroe reigned in tennis, and Hulk Hogan and Vince McMahon made pro wrestling a business, while Donald Trump pierced the national consciousness as a pro football team owner. It was an awakening in the sports world, a moment when sports began to morph into the market-savvy, sensationalized, moneyed, controversial, and wildly popular arena we know today. In the tradition of Bill Bryson's One Summer: America, 1927, L. Jon Wertheim captures these 90 seminal days against the backdrop of the nostalgia-soaked 1980s, to show that this was the year we collectively traded in our ratty Converses for a pair of sleek, heavily branded, ingeniously marketed Nikes. This was the year that sports went big-time.

Every year the children have looked forward to spending the summer at their grandmother's historic home in downtown Nantucket. But like so much else in America, nothing is the same: Blair, the oldest sister, is marooned in Boston, pregnant with twins and unable to travel. Middle sister Kirby, caught up in the thrilling vortex of civil rights protests and determined to be independent, takes a summer job on Martha's Vineyard. Only-son Tiger is an infantry soldier, recently deployed to Vietnam. And thirteen-year-old Jessie suddenly feels like an only child, marooned in the house with her out-of-touch grandmother and her worried mother, while each of them hides a troubling secret. As the summer heats up, Ted Kennedy sinks a car in Chappaquiddick, man flies to the moon, and Jessie and her family experience their own dramatic upheavals along with the rest of the country. In her first historical novel, rich with the details of an era that shaped both a nation and an island thirty miles out to sea, Elin Hilderbrand once again earns her title as queen of the summer novel.
