The Longest Day of the Year by Kim Wright ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ on Goodreads It’s the summer solstice and at a small beach on the Carolina coast four women fall into conversation while sitting at the edge of the water. On the surface they would seem to have little in Clio, a 22-year-old waitress at a nearby seafood shack, torn between the son of the owner and the sexy but penniless farmboy who delivers produce to the restaurant; Amy, 36, the wife of an ambitious developer whose plans to build highrises will change, and some say ruin, the vibe of sweet little Elliott Point; Josie, 59 and just off breast cancer surgery, ignoring her children's worried advice in order to flee back to the place where she last was happy; and finally Cully, 81, a seascape artist of some renown, considered an eccentric by the locals because she chooses to live alone in a tumbledown cottage. But they all do share one thing and that's how much they love this particular beach.The Longest Day of the Year celebrates the timeless quality of life on the Carolina coast, where a woman could be forgiven for not only forgetting what day of the week it is, but sometimes even forgetting what year it is. As the sun rises and sets on this single perfect summer day, each woman will chase her dreams and attempt to run from her fears, but there’s one thing they’re all sure the salt water of Elliott Point has a certain magic and will always be there to baptize a woman into her own personal second chance.
