____________________________ From the No. 1 New York Times bestselling author of That Summer
comes another heartfelt and unputdownable novel of family secrets and the ties that bind.
When Veronica Levy bought her dream house on the Outer Cape she imagined a place where
generations of her family would gather for years to come. Now forty years later with her
children barely speaking to each other or to her Veronica has decided reluctantly to put
the place on the market. She'll invite the family to gather one last time (and insist on their
good behavior) at her granddaughter Ruby's wedding. She'll spend one last summer by the beach
with her daughter Sarah her son Sam and whichever grandchildren can be coaxed into making the
trip. Then she'll say goodbye to the house she's loved for forty years. But three months is a
long time. Time enough for an old love to reappear for secrets to come to light and for three
generations of Levy women to decide what kind of lives they want to live in the summers they
have left. The Summer Place is a hilarious delicious and wickedly observed story about
parents and children husbands and wives the places we call home and all the ways that love
can surprise us. ____________________________ Find out why everyone's talking about Jennifer
