Elin Hilderbrand’s books are always perfect summer reads! I love the island setting and the joy you find from the locals. I was rooting for Tabitha and Harper throughout the whole book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Elin is one of my favorite “go to” authors for airplane and beach books. I’ve read most of her books and haven’t found a dud yet. Her books are pure entertainment without a lot of thinking required

Love Elin! Great book with lots of great characters. I enjoyed the different ages of the characters. The story flowed well, I liked the narrative from all characters and couldn't stop reading! Great read

I love Elin Hilderbrand! She always tells of people of whom you can identify. The tale of the two sisters is gut wrenching and inspiring. You can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your family!
