When Kiley was a kid, her family spent their summers at Hawke’s Cove. During her summers there her two closest friends were Mack, from another summer family, and Granger, a local boy. These three kids were inseparable until Kiley began to develop, as young women are wont to do. Then the friendship turns to rivalry as Kiley unwittingly pits the two boys against each other. In a rage, Mack takes his sailboat out alone with tragic consequences.
Feeling guilty and ashamed, Kiley leaves Hawke’s Cove never to return until almost twenty years later when her parents ask her to oversee the sale of their house there. Kiley comes back to Hawke’s Cove with her teenage son, Will. Who is Will’s father? Everyone wants to know, including Will himself, but Kiley isn’t talking.
This was a pretty good story, although I didn’t really understand Kiley’s motivation in keeping Will’s birth a secret or her reasoning in avoiding Hawke’s Cove for all those years. In fact, I really didn’t understand why she chose to sleep with one boy when she was more attached to the other boy.
