Two families are torn apart by secret pasts and broken heartsâfrom Globe and Mail-bestselling author Marissa Stapley.
When secrets tear love apart, can the truth mend it?
Mae Summers and Noah Broadbent grew up together in the idyllic Summersâ Inn, perched at the edge the St. Lawrence river. Mae was orphaned at the age of six and Noah needed protection from his alcoholic father, so both were raised under one roof by Maeâs grandparents, Lilly and George. A childhood friendship quickly developed into a first loveâa love that was suddenly broken by Noahâs unexpected departure. Mae grew up, got over her heartbreak, and started a life for herself in New York City.
After more than a decade, Mae and Noah find themselves pulled back to Alexandria Bay. Hoping to find solace within the Summersâ Inn, Mae instead finds her grandparents in the midst of decline and their past unravelling around her. A lifetime of secrets stand in the way of this unconventional familyâs happiness. Will they be able to reclaim the past and come together, or will they remain separate islands?
From the bestselling author of Mating for Life comes a powerful story about guilt, forgiveness and the truth about families: that we can choose them, just as we choose to love.
