More About SUMMER STATE OF MIND:
“Queen of the beach read,” Cosmopolitan — New York Times bestselling author Kristy Woodson Harvey returns with a heartfelt escape to coastal Carolina.
After a career-shaking day, burned-out NICU nurse Daisy Stevens flees to Cape Carolina, North Carolina, seeking a simpler life and perhaps new love. On her first day at a new job, high school baseball coach Mason Thaysden discovers an abandoned baby, setting off events that touch the entire town.
Mason, wrestling with the consequences of an injury that derailed his career, is searching for purpose. The newcomer and the rescued child might give him reason to stay. As Daisy and Mason grow closer, she becomes attached to the child and starts to confront her own past. Mason’s eccentric Aunt Tilley seeks relief from long-held secrets and her own fresh start, drawing the characters into each other’s lives.
When a startling discovery threatens to divide Cape Carolina, Daisy, Mason, and Tilley find themselves at the center of a community upheaval. With compassion, connection, and even a community theater production of Hello, Dolly!, they learn that love and belonging can appear in unexpected ways.
