Title: The Summer That Changed Us
The sparkling seaside village of Merle Bay, with its beautiful beach scattered with sea glass, is a place where anyone can have a fresh start.
For Katie, it is the perfect hideout after a childhood trauma left her feeling exposed. For Robyn, the fresh sea air is helping to heal her scars, but maybe not her marriage. For Grace, a new start could help her move on from a heartbreaking loss. When they meet on Sea Glass Beach one day, they form an instant bond and soon they're sharing prosecco, laughter - and even their biggest secrets...
Together, the women feel stronger than ever before. So can their friendship help them face old fears and find happy endings - as well as new beginnings?
What an incredibly apt title that is. It really is a life changing summer for Katie, Robyn and Grace, in this tale of blackmail, deceit, and courage.
And above all about the strength of female friendship This is 4 incredibly strong women (if you count Amber too), who after a particularly memorable and funny first meeting, form a wonderful friendship.
There is plenty of sea glass, and at the point each of them reveals their big secret to the group, and we get them as full flashback bits of the book, I was utterly hooked.
The strength and resilience these ladies show is nothing short of amazing.
The story includes many very important issues, and is I believe the first book I've read that includes raising awareness of period poverty.
It's heartwarming, inspiring and just sublime.
Thank you to Orion and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
