My mom gave me this one to read and it is SO cute. If you’re looking for a nice feel good book to read on the beach, this is a good one. It takes place on the Isle of Palms (outside Charleston) which of course I loved, and the story is just very heartwarming and sweet. Cara rents her beach house to Heather, (a slightly eccentric but sweet artist who owns three canaries). When Cara experiences a personal tragedy, she moves back into the house with Heather and the two of them form an unlikely friendship. It’s a story of love and loss and recovery… it’s also a testament to the importance of strong female friendships.
