Summer Longing

Ruth Cooperman, a recently retired divorcee, arrives in Provincetown for a relaxing solo vacation, but is surprised to find that the charming cottage she'd booked for the summer comes with more than a seaside view--there's a baby on the doorstep. Eager to resolve this unwelcome welcome basket, Ruth contacts the home's owner, Elise, who seems to be more amazed than alarmed by this teeny new visitor--in fact, this baby is just what she's been waiting for...

Drawing upon her own reignited maternal instincts, Ruth invites her adult daughter, Olivia, to stay at the cottage while this mistaken delivery is sorted out. Both women spend time enjoying the art galleries, seafood restaurants, and sandy beaches that make Provincetown so special. But with each cape-side sunset, secrets and lies about the baby, the cottage, and Ruth's decision to retire alone at the furthest point of the cape, begin to bubble to the surface. Will she ever get the peaceful holiday she paid for, or will Ruth's retreat only bring her closer to home?
