Thirty-year-old Charlotte Wheelwright is planting a new life in Nantucket. The transplantation is almost literal: With the help of her grandmother Nona, she's started her own organic gardening business. Her intuitive skill with summer blooms is not duplicated, however, in the "real world." Attracted to her handsome neighbor Coop, she frets privately over the progress of their relationship; and her ties with her extended family are complicated by jealousy and warring interests. Nancy Thayer's novel is a graceful tale about three generations of Wheelwright women and how they heal during a warm Nantucket summer.
