Set in Connecticut's tiny Gold Coast town of Highfield, Dune Road tells the story of Kit Hargrove, whose divorce has granted her a new lease on life. No longer a Wall Street widow with her requisite diamond studs and Persian rugs, Kit revels in her clapboard Cape with the sea green shutters and sprawling impatiens. Her kids are content, her ex cooperative, her friends steadfast, and each morning she wakes up unable to believe how lucky she is to have landed the job of her dreams: assisting the blockbuster novelist Robert McClore. A mysterious tragedy drove this famous writer into seclusion decades ago, and few besides Kit are granted access to his house at the top of Dune Road, with it's breathtaking views of Long Island Sound. But all that is about to change. At a rare appearance at the local bookstore, McClore meets Kit's new friend Tracy, whose weakness for older men rivals her powers of self-reinvention. Are the secret visits of her boss's new muse as innocent as Kit would like to believe? When a figure from her mother's past emerges with equally cryptic intentions just as the bear financial market is upending her best friend's life, Kit discovers that her blissfully constructed idyll - and the gorgeous man who has walked into it with creamy white roses - isn't as perfect as she'd thought. Ties to friends and family are further reaching than she had realised - and more crucial than ever before. Warm, witty and gloriously observed, Dune Road is Jane Green at her best, full of brilliant insights into the challenges that come with forging a new life.

The most thing i like about this book is that it shows not everyone is good even if it was your sister or boyfriend; not being negative, you could get hurt by the closest. but i think the whole book is a bit imaginary, good but isn't realistic. i didn't like the characters so much.

I am so disappointed with Jane Green's latest novels. First of all, the "big mystery" discussed on the cover is really never discussed and is certainly never threatened to be exposed. I totally knew all the "surprises" that were supposed to be exposed--so I was not surprised at all. :-P

I think I'm Jane Greened out. I tried reading this book and tried listening to it in the car. I just can't get into it. I need a break from the same old stuff.
