The Forever Summer
by Jamie Brenner
April 25th 2017 by Little, Brown and Company
The
discovery of long-buried secrets brings three generations of women together to
Cape Cod for the summer homecoming of a lifetime.
Marin
Bishop has always played by the rules, and it's paid off: on the cusp of thirty
she has a handsome fiancé, a prestigious Manhattan legal career, and her
father's hard-won admiration. But with one careless mistake at work, Marin
suddenly finds herself unemployed and alone. Before she can summon the courage
to tell her parents, a young woman appears, claiming to be Marin's half-sister.
Seeking answers, Marin agrees to join her on a soul-searching journey to Cape
Cod, to meet the family she didn't even know she had.
As the
summer unfolds at her grandmother's beachside B&B, it becomes clear that
her half-sister's existence is just the first in a series of truths that will
shake Marin's beliefs--in love, and in her own identity--to the core. Filled
with shocking revelations, heartfelt romance, and resilient women banding
together against the most unexpected twists of fate, THE FOREVER SUMMER is an
emotionally resonant page-turner, and a delicious escape for any season.

The Forever Summer by Jamie Brenner
was the perfect read for a lazy day lounging at the beach or by the pool. Character development was great and the
descriptions of the town were perfect.
This was a very diverse story and something I probably wouldn’t have
picked up if I had known from the beginning, but the author did such an amazing
job with the plot I could not help but be swept away into the story.
There
is something for everyone in the pages of this book – from family secrets to
love and loss of love, but in the end it’s a very powerful story that is sure to
stay with the reader long after the last page is read.
3 stars
