When Kaye Bennett , matriarch of the Bennett family, summons her adult children to the shore house, she anticipates a vacation full of nostalgia. It's a chance to relive the carefree joy of summers past: basking in the hot sun, cooling off in the surf and enjoying long, relaxing evenings watching fireflies on the deck. But when Kaye's son and daughter arrive, late and uncooperative, it becomes clear the family desperately need to reconnect . Kaye and her daughter Stacy have been quietly at odds for years and resentment has grown around words unsaid. Faced with spending the summer months in such close quarters, Kaye is determined to remind Stacy of happier times and why she once loved their beautiful beachside home. But both Kaye and Stacy are holding something back ... and only when a heart-stopping moment on the beach puts what Stacy most loves at risk are the two women finally able to set free the secrets in their shared past. Will opening up to each other about what's in their hearts allow the Bennett family to finally heal? A story of love, forgiveness and the power of family bonds, The Shore House is a heartfelt summer read . Perfect for fans of Elin Hilderbrand, Pamela Kelley and Nancy Thayer.
