Driftwood Summer by Patti Callahan Henry

Two good books in a row! Another book about relationships and family. Riley is a single mother trying to earn her living by running the bookstore she and her mother, Kitsy, had started 12 years ago. The store is in financial trouble and they are hoping that a big celebration of the cottage's 200th birthday will turn the tide. When Kitsy has a bad fall, Riley calls on her sisters to come home and help. Maisy is guilted into coming back from California where she is a designer. Maisy has had very little to do with the family since she took off after highschool. Adalee is the youngest. She is in college and is very irritated that she is expected to come home and work instead of enjoying her summer with her boyfriend. There are lots of resentments and secrets that have been buried for a long time - and now they are going to come out. I loved the characters and the way the book was written. No sex or violence - she depends on the characters to keep your interest!
