These Summer Storms by Sarah MacLean PB

Some families are complicated. The Storms? They’re a full-blown weather system.

This National Bestseller is the kind of book you’ll want to bring down to the water and lose an entire afternoon inside. It’s a razor-sharp, wildly sexy novel about a wealthy New England family’s long-overdue reckoning—and the one week that just might tear them apart.

Alice Storm hasn’t been welcome at her family’s private island off the Rhode Island coast in five years. Not since she walked away from the Storm name, influence, and untold billions. But when her larger-than-life father dies, he leaves behind one final, manipulative challenge: an inheritance game. The rules? Spend one week on the island. Complete your assigned tasks. Collect what’s yours.

Easier said than done. Especially with a secret love affair, an arrogant brother, a cold-eyed mother, and one impossibly handsome man named Jack Dean watching Alice’s every move.

Critics can’t stop raving. “Deliciously impossible to put down,” says Jodi Picoult. “Addictive,” agrees Ali Hazelwood. The New York Times Book Review called it “a gripping inheritance drama, wrapped around a swoony summer romance.” It was also named a Best Book of the Year by TIME, The New York Times Book Review, NPR, and Kirkus Reviews.

And here’s our favorite little detail: this gorgeous first-edition trade paperback features stenciled edges with a wave pattern. A book about summer storms, dressed for the occasion. It practically belongs here in the cove.

A tender, salty, page-turning story about grief, love, and the family we can’t quite escape. Come find it on our shelves—it won’t linger long.
