Getting Away – Kate Sawyer
Margaret Smith is at the beach with her family, a rare day out unlike any other Margaret has ever known. The Smith family have left the town where they live, work and go to school to visit a place where the sky is blue, the sand is white, and the sound of the sea surrounds them. An ordinary family discovering the joy of getting away for the first time.
Over the course of the coming decades, they will be transformed through their holiday experiences, each new destination a backdrop to their ever-changing family. Love stories begin and end, children become parents and then grandparents — and secrets are revealed.
River of Stars – Georgina Moore
Jo hasn’t seen Oliver since that magical, life-changing summer when their idyllic island paradise was shattered. Growing up on Walnut Tree Island, they were everything to each other, defying a feud that fractured their families decades before.
If first love runs deep, Jo and Oliver’s ran like the river itself, fast and true. On Walnut Tree Island, love affairs and secrets come and go like the tides. Once the pulse of a flourishing 1960s music scene, it’s where Mary Star fell in love with a young musician about to hit the big time, only to be left with a baby and a broken heart.
Mary has made the island a haven for two generations of Star women, raising her daughter and her granddaughter, surrounded by the river, supported by a bohemian, artistic community. But Oliver’s return to the island after years away throws everyone into a frenzy. The threat of change is coming to paradise.
And for Jo, Oliver’s return opens the wounds of a love she thought she had lost for ever…
