“Magical! Mary Alice Monroe’s writing is always sensitive and true and as inspiring as the natural wonder about which she writes. This luminous tale—set in the South Carolina Lowcountry that we both love so deeply—was hard to put down.”

Dorothea Benton Frank, New York Times bestselling author

Three sisters reunite on Sullivan's Island off the coast of South Carolina after years of separation in this heartwarming first novel in a new trilogy from a beloved author.

Eighty-year-old Marietta Muir is a dowager of Charleston society who has retired to her historic summer home on Sullivan's Island. At the onset of summer, Marietta, "Mamaw," seeks to gather her three granddaughters—Carson, Eudora, and Harper—with the intent to reunite them after years apart. Monroe explores the depths and complexities of sisterhood, friendship, and the power of forgiveness. The Summer Girls is a perfect beach read and anyone who "enjoys such fine Southern voices as Pat Conroy will add the talented Monroe to their list of favorites" (Booklist).

    The unlikely meeting of 3 sisters and bottlenose dolphins.

    For anyone interested in reading a story about sisterly relations and the rewards of that relationship coming in contact with bottlenose dolphins, you won’t be disappointed. Making the good feel of this book all the more dynamic is the dysfunctional family they grew up in. As another story from Mary Alice Monroe, one can depend on believable characters and situations that lift the potential of the characters to new heights. A definite recommendation
