Critics Review
‘A perfect beach read - fun, thoughtful, romantic!’ Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Hello Beautiful and Dear Edward
‘This novel has everything I love about a New England summer: it’s warm, fun, the people are witty, and there’s a hot guy who works in the boatyard. I fell in love with our heroine Cece Downing as she searched for love and meaning amidst the oysters. Soon Wiley has gifted us wonderful characters and a totally satisfying story’ Annie Hartnett, national bestselling author of Rabbit Cake and The Road to Tender Hearts
‘An intimate coastal portrait of reinvention, tracing a woman who trades certainty for saltwater. Wiley’s prose is precise and restrained, with an observational grace that carries the novel forth like a steady, well-kept tide’ Weike Wang, author of Rental House
