Synopsis
Two girls who spend summers together as children grow up and find their lives becoming complicated and their old friendship strained.

In the summer of 1977, Victoria's world changed forever--when Caitlin chose her as a friend. Dazzling, reckless Caitlin welcomed Vix into the heart of her sprawling, eccentric family, opening doors to a world of unimaginable privilege, sweeping her away to vacations on Martha's Vineyard, a magical windblown island where two friends became summer sisters. Now six years later, Vix is working in New York City and Caitlin has invited her to the island for her wedding. And Vix knows she'll go, because she wants to know what happened during that last shattering summer. And, after all these years, she needs to know her summer sister still has the power to break her heart.
