"After a disastrous summer spent at her family's home on Cape Cod when she is seventeen, Ann Gordon is very happy to never visit Wellfleet again. If only she'd stayed in Wisconsin, she might never have met Anthony Shaw, and she would have held on to the future she'd so carefully planned for herself. Instead, Ann ends up harboring a devastating secret that strains her relationship with her parents, sends her sister, Poppy, to every corner of the world chasing waves (and her next fling), and leaves her adopted brother, Michael, estranged from the family. Now, fifteen years later, her parents have died and Ann and Poppy are left to determine the fate of the beach house that has been in the Gordon family for generations. Just when the sisters decide to sell, Michael reenters their lives with a legitimate claim to a third of the estate. He wants the house. But more than that, he wants to set the record straight about what happened that long-ago summer that changed all of their lives forever. As the siblings reunite after years apart, their old secrets and lies, longings and losses, are pulled to the surface. Is the house the one thing that can still bring them together -- or will it tear them apart, once and for all?"--,Provided by publisher.
