Moonlight on the Bay - Katie Winters - Bog

A hidden sea cottage on the beach. Two secret affairs. And motherly love that transcends time and space -- no matter what.
Aria Baldwin did the unthinkable: she ran away from her family's money, dropped out of college, and moved to Martha's Vineyard. She's lost, frightened, and unsure of herself -- but she's also falling head-over-heels with Cole Steel, whom she met onboard a sailboat in the Caribbean.
Upon her arrival to Martha's Vineyard, Aria receives a mysterious letter with a newspaper clipping from over thirty years ago, which leaves Aria with numerous questions about her mother's past. To Aria, her mother has never been more than her father's puppet -- but she's beginning to think she doesn't have the whole story.
Like Aria, Carmella never thought her mother cared for her at all. But when Elsa gives Carmella one of their mother's diaries, Carmella learns about her mother's sordid affair -- one that very nearly split up their family immediately after Carmella's birth.
As Aria and Carmella fight to learn more about their mothers' pasts, they find themselves overwhelmed with compassion for the women who've come before them and the choices they were forced to make to survive.
Dive into book eleven of The Katama Bay Series, a heartwarming journey of motherly and sisterly love, healing, and promise for better days, all on the island of Martha's Vineyard, with its gorgeous ocean views, its endless summer days, and its bubbly cast of islanders.
