About this ebook

Beach therapy, they call it, with a twist of lime.

Six women return to the same beach house in Tuckaway Bay, the same week in August, for over twenty years, drinking and laughing their past year’s problems away. Beach therapy, they call it, with a twist of lime.

Lia contemplates a surprise marriage proposal from her long-term partner—one she doesn’t want. Maggie questions the arrangement she made with her husband years earlier. Julia fights depression after a horrible loss. Wren worries about the legalities of her sister’s business, while her twin, Willow, avoids a medical issue. And Alice? Her life is perfect. Right.

As their troubles escalate and beach week unravels, the women realize no amount of beach therapy will solve their problems this year.

Alice divulges a secret. Wren and Willow disappear. Maggie faces an impossible family situation. Julia confesses her addiction. And Lia wrestles with a twenty-year-old decision when an old summer love shows up at their beach house.

Can beach week, and their friendships, survive? Even with tequila?

This is an absolutely brilliant book, it has so many twists and turns, there is no way to know what is going to happen next. I can’t wait to read the next 4 books in the series.

Characters that have quirks and interesting personalities plus being friends but also come with baggage and secrets. Entertaining reading. Interesting location and story. Great start to a new series. Good read. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

This is the second book I've read written by Madeleine Jaimes; I can’t wait to read more of her books. This is the first book in the Tuckaway Bay Series; it can be read as a stand-alone book but would be much better if read in order. The story is about six friends returning the Tuckaway Bay every year for over twenty years.
