THE BEACH HOUSE

But an unusual request from her mother—coming just as her own life is spinning out of control—has Cara heading back to the scenic Lowcountry of her childhood summers. Upon reconnecting with her mother, she will learn life’s most precious lessons—true love involves sacrifice, family is forever and the mistakes of the past can be forgiven.

It’s only been through the enduring love of a close-knit group of women on this tiny island that she’s finally started to find her footing.
