Thoroughly enjoyable story with strong characters, great back stories, even the minor characters are complete. Loved this book so much that I went into Book two of the series immediately after finishing this one and I'm chomping at the bit for Book 3. In fact, I want to move there right away.

Three daughters are worried about their father, who seems to be forgetting things, they fully believe he should be in a facility that is able to care for him. Their father and they have suffered the loss of wife and mother and none of them are doing well in their own lives. They truly get scared when they find out that he has sold the family home and bought a summer camp on an island - he thinks its the summer camp of his youth and it is the very place that he met their mother.
What happens to all four of them and the oldest daughters son is a crazy whirlwind of adjustments, expectations realized and lost and an island of locals that don't want them there.
A wonderful story to get lost in. I couldn't recommend this book and series more highly. If 2020 is getting you down, this is the book to escape it for a little while.
