A time to remember / by Cox, Josephine,author.; Middleton, Gilly,author.;
Maureen has never learned the art of putting herself first. She always gives, and never expects anything in return for herself. Instead of being treated the same way by others, her gentle temperament has seen her taken advantage of, and now she has lost her joy in life. Maureen has a chance to change that when an unexpected windfall comes her way. Determined to make up for lost time, she decides to take a holiday and, needing a companion, looks up her old friend Barbara. However, Barbara has changed in the years since they last met, and what starts out as a nostalgic trip down memory lane becomes something different altogether. Will their friendship stand the test of time, or should it be left firmly in the past?

The second home / by Clancy, Christina,author.;
"After a disastrous summer spent at her family summer home on Cape Cod, seventeen-year-old Ann Gordon was left with a secret that changed her life forever, and created a rift between her sister, Poppy, and their adopted brother, Michael. Now, fifteen years later, her parents have died, leaving Ann and Poppy to decide the fate of the Wellfleet home that's been in the Gordon family for generations. For Ann, the once-beloved house is tainted with bad memories. Poppy loves the old saltbox, but after years spent chasing waves around the world, she isn't sure she knows how to stay in one place. Just when the sisters decide to sell, Michael re-enters their lives with a legitimate claim to the house. But more than that, he wants to set the record straight about that long ago summer. Reunited after years apart, these very different siblings must decide if they can continue to be a family-and the house just might be the glue that holds them together. Told through the shifting perspectives of Ann, Poppy, and Michael, this assured and affecting debut captures the ache of nostalgia for summers past and the powerful draw of the places we return to again and again. It is about second homes, second families, and second chances. Tender and compassionate, incisive and heartbreaking, The Second Home is the story of a family you'll quickly fall in love with, and won't soon forget"--
