Driftwood Summer

LOVED this book!! I don't usually give a book 5 stars, but this one gets it! I think I could be a little biased because I loved the talk of the family owned bookstore/cottage and its environment. It's been my dream to someday open a bookstore/coffee shop and own a lake home and the book is my dream! I will only post the B&N synopsis of the book so I don't ruin anything for anybody! I could ramble on and on about the book. The one thing I will say is that I loved how the author dedicated the chapters to one of the two sisters. It allowed the reader to get more information and points of view about the same situations. I have to say I think this is the best book I've read so far this summer and I am excited to read more by Patti Callahan Henry.
Three sisters— responsible Riley, vivacious Maisy, and fun-loving Adalee—reunite to save the family's beach-community bookstore. But summer also marks the return of Mack Logan, whose choice of Maisy over Riley years ago destroyed the special closeness between the sisters...Now Riley, a single mom, is hiding a shattering secret about their mother. Maisy, a California designer, still blames Riley for ruining her one true love. And Adalee resents the family's intrusion into her summer plans. All three will be forced to confront the conflicts that tore them apart and the bounds of love and loyalty that still draw them together...
