Last Summer (A Yorktide, Maine Novel Book 7)

The town of Yorktide, close to Maineâ€™s beautiful beaches and the city of Portland, seems like the perfect place to raise a family. For Jane Patterson, thereâ€™s another advantage: her best friend, Frannie Giroux, lives next door, and their teenaged daughters, Rosie and Meg, are inseparable. But in the girlsâ€™ freshman year of high school, everything changes. Rosieâ€”quiet, shy, and also very prettyâ€”attracts the sneers and slights of a clique of older girls. Over time, the bullying worsens. When Meg betrays their friendship, fearful that she too will be targeted, Rosie suffers an emotional breakdown.

Blaming both Meg and Frannie, Jane tries to help Rosie heal while dealing with her own guilt and anger. In the months that follow, each struggles with the ideas of forgiveness and compassion, of knowing when a friendship is shattered beyond repairâ€”and when hope can be salvaged, one small moment at a timeâ€¦

Praise for Holly Chamberlin

â€œChamberlinâ€™s latest is a great summer read but with substance. It will find a wide audience in its exploration of sisterhood, family, and loss.â€Â â€“Library Journal on Summer with My Sisters
