Description: "Nestled in the safe haven of The Sandpiper, a white-shingled cottage perched above the endless blue of Lake Michigan, Nina Judd has always been the guardian angel of the three Cameron women. Ellie Cameron, widowed mother. Kate, her perfect older daughter. Jamie, the screw-up. Kate and Jamie are sisters bound in loyalty by a secret oath--two bright young women full of life and promise until the fateful summer Jamie turns eighteen, a summer that ruined everything. But in the end, maybe Kate isn't so perfect after all, and Jamie not so hopeless. Embraced by The Sandpiper, and Nina's love, two sisters finally share their secret and struggle toward forgiveness and healing."--Page 4 of cover.
