Summer Rental by Mary Kay Andrews
Pub. Date: June 7, 2011
Goodreads says, "Ellis, Julia, and Dorie. Best friends since Catholic grade school, they now find themselves, in their mid-thirties, at the crossroads of life and love. Ellis, recently fired from a job she gave everything to, is rudderless and now beginning to question the choices she's made over the past decade of her life. Julia—whose caustic wit covers up her wounds--has a man who loves her and is offering her the world, but she can't hide from how deeply insecure she feels about her looks, her brains, her life. And Dorie has just been shockingly betrayed by the man she loved and trusted the most in the world…though this is just the tip of the iceberg of her problems and secrets. A month in North Carolina's Outer Banks is just what they each of them needs."
*You know how much I love a good beach read and this one sounds perfect, especially because it takes place in the Outer Banks. I am heading there this summer, so maybe I will bring this one along with me!
Great minds think alike. :) This was going to be my WoW pick this week until I saw that the cover for the new Alexia Tarabotti book was revealed and I decided to make it next week's WoW pick. I haven't read Mary Kay Andrews yet but this is the one I plan to start with. I think the story sounds wonderful and I like the setting. I want to go there someday.
