Enchanted August: A Novel

Enchanted August: A Novel

â€œA charming, thoroughly engrossing novel thatâ€™s the next best thing to being there.â€ â€”People Magazine
Â
Hopewell Cottage
Little Lost Island, Maine.
Old, pretty cottage to rent on a small island.
Springwater, blueberries, sea glass.
August.

So reads an ad on Lottie Wilkesâ€™ and Rose Arbuthnotâ€™s childrenâ€™s preschool bulletin board.
Â
When the mothers arrive on the island, they are transformed by the salt air; the breathtaking views; the long, lazy days; and the happy routine of lobster, corn, and cocktails on the wraparound porch. By the time of the late-August blue moon, real life and its complications have finally fallen far, far away. For on this idyllic island they gradually begin to open up: to one another and to the possibilities of lives quite different from the ones theyâ€™ve been leading. Change canâ€™t be that hard, can it?
Â
With a cast of endearingly imperfect charactersâ€”including indie movie star Caroline Dester and an elderly Beverly Fisher, who is recovering from heartbreaking lossâ€”and set against the beauty of a gorgeous New England summer, Enchanted August is a sparkling summer debut that brilliantly updates the beloved classic The Enchanted April in a novel of love and reawakening that is simply irresistible.
