"Can old friends still be honest with one another?" This is a VERY GOOD book. I totally enjoyed it. It made you think about many things.
When four women reunite to celebrate their fortieth birthdays in San Diego, past meets present, and the future is changed forever.
On her fortieth birthdy, Dr. Josephine Zambruski sits in her office gazing at a photograph of herself and her three best friends. The women laughing in the picture are 28 years old, and a wedding wsa the last time they were all together. Unexpected tears well up in her eyes. Somehow, in the past 12 years, only annual Christmas letters have kept their friendship from fading away completely.
An irresistible desire for the closeness they use to share prompts Jo to invite Char, Molly, and Andie to California. The women look forward to the camaraderie of old friends and escape from everyday life, but inevitably, relaxation turns to reflection, and each guest must face the struggles and decisions she brought along with her sandals and sunglasses.

What's in this house by the sea that helps four old friends reconnect? If they give each other a week to be tyransparent with one another, will long-hidden secrets finally be revealed? Will they find the answers together they have struggled to find alone?

The first release in the Beach House series is the story of four women,friends from childhood,who reunite to celebrate their fortieth birthdays together.I didn't think I would like the book when I first started reading it but after a few pages I couldn't wait to read more.Jo,Char,Molly and Andie each face different problems and revelations and it was really interesting to see how each handled whatever came about. I would recommend this book highly to anyone.

This was a great book to read at the beach. It is a book about four best friends reconnecting to celebrate their 40th birthdays. A book about God's faithfulness.
