Perfect for you if...

  • You love ensemble casts where multiple characters' lives matter equally, not just the romantic lead.
  • You want feel-good contemporary fiction that doesn't shy away from real struggles like divorce and health scares.
  • You're a series reader who's already invested in Marigold Island and wants to spend more time with these characters.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer standalone novels and don't want to commit to a series.
  • You're looking for high-stakes drama or romantic tension that keeps you guessing until the final page.
  • You'd rather not read about faith as a central element woven through the narrative.

About this book

Return to Marigold Island to follow Lydia, Angela, and their family and friends as the Beachside Inn opens its doors to its first guests, including Patrick, who is searching for a new house. With tourist season approaching and the Summer Sand Festival on the horizon, Lydia and Grant explore their growing relationship while both move forward from past losses. Angela is content with her decision to end things with Scott, though she finds herself drawn to Patrick as they bond over their shared experiences with divorce. As she considers whether their friendship might deepen, Scott reappears and asks for another chance. Meanwhile, Brooke adopts a pet, Hunter auditions for a film role, Travis contemplates settling down, and Phoebe faces an unexpected health crisis. Set in a fictional island town near Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket, this women's fiction follows the characters through a summer of changes and challenges as they navigate healing, friendship, family, faith, and love.
