Country Club Summer

Behind every perfect summer, there's a story no one's telling.

At the Draydon Country Club, the summers are flawless. The tennis whites are crisp. The martinis are cold. The to-do lists are endless.

Holly Kilgour has reclaimed her life. After years trapped in a gilded, quietly brutal marriage, the fifty-one-year-old divorcée is exactly where she wants to be — tan, free, and finally on her own terms. But when a secret from her past resurfaces, everything she's rebuilt begins to tremble.

Lisa Doyle is the woman who makes everything look effortless, mostly because no one is watching closely enough to see how hard she's working. Between ferrying teenagers, managing aging parents, and trying to remember the last time she and her husband had a real conversation, she's starting to wonder if "fine" is the saddest word in the English language.

Savannah Moore came to Connecticut for one summer and somehow ended up with a fiancé, a monogram, and a future mother-in-law with very strong opinions. But the closer her wedding gets, the more she wonders if the version of herself she's becoming is the one she wants to be.

Over one sun-drenched summer, three women in very different chapters of life find themselves on the same tennis court — and discover that friendship, once found, has a way of changing everything.

Country Club Summer is warm, funny, and deeply satisfying — a novel about the burdens women carry, the courage it takes to tell the truth, and the unexpected grace of being truly known.
