Summer at the cape / RaeAnne Thayne.

Thayne, RaeAnne, (author.).

Summary:

"As the older sibling to identical twins Violet and Lily, Cami Porter was always the odd sister out. The divide grew even wider when their parents split up--while the twins stayed in Cape Sanctuary with their free-spirited mother, Rosemary, fourteen-year-old Cami moved to LA with her attorney father. Nearly twenty years later, when Cami gets the terrible news that Lily has drowned saving a child's life, her mother begs her to return home to help untangle the complicated estate issues her sister left behind. Navigating their own strained relationship, Cami readjusts to the family and community she hasn't known for decades, including the neighbor who stands in the way of her late sister's dream, while Violet grieves the loss of her twin and struggles to figure out who she is now, without her other half, as the little girl Lily saved pulls her back into the orbit of the man she once loved"-- Provided by publisher.

From Booklist, Copyright (c) American Library Association. Used with permission.

Cami Porter, an associate contract attorney at her father's law firm, receives a frantic call from her mother. Cami's younger sister Lily, who drowned rescuing two young girls, dreamt of creating a glamping (glamorous camping) resort on the headland near their mother's home. The elderly neighbor who had never signed the lease is drifting into dementia, and his archaeologist son, Jon, has returned from an important dig in Central America to stop the resort. Lily and her twin, Violet, hardly knew each other, having grown up separately after their parents divorced. She has also returned and discovers that the divorced father of one of the rescued children is the boy who broke her heart in college. Jon is convinced that Cami is a conniving lawyer out to take advantage of his father, until he finds himself appreciating her kindness. Thayne's characters are multidimensional people who care not only for those near-and-dear but also for others who need help, and this lovely romance offers a gentle depiction of many family challenges, including dementia.
