I started out liking this book more than the last one I read by Nancy Thayer. I could relate better to the characters who, while still living on fabulous Nantucket Island, were mainly regular working class people. I certainly can relate to a story about sisters who don't always get along but rely on each other nonetheless. I always enjoy hearing about summer by the sea - has she written a book about Nantucket in the winter? Unfortunately, she decided to throw in some manufactured melodrama - something happens that is really too improbable and too convenient. I do expect some unlikely events in a soap opera-y book like this, but I balk when they are just so out of the ordinary.I did manage to get over my indignation and enjoy the denouement and I might still read another of Thayer's island dramas. It does sound like a pretty cool place.

Really has a bit of a happily ever after and everything works out perfect for everyone ending but I enjoyed it. This was my first by this author and would certainly try more. I do have to say I tried this one as an audiobook which in general I get through easier and I also think contributed to my rating as it was a nice easy book to listen to.
What do You think about Beachcombers (2010)?
I enjoyed this book and the characters in it. It's the perfect beach/summer vacation read.
