Dune Road by Jane Green

Green does an excellent job of bringing her characters to life! This is among one of my favorite of Green's novels. A lot happens and each is more interesting than the next. Unexpected and expected events arise. It is entertaining and entertaining and filled with suspenseful twists and turns. Expect to set time aside to read this novel or you will be up late like me. This book is quite different from her other chick-lit writings, so don't expect the same work. An enjoyable read and an excellent study of characters. 

Grade: A

Synopsis (B&N) A sparkling new novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Beach House Jane Green’s last novel, The Beach House, was an instant New York Times bestseller and captured her largest audience yet. From the sunny green lawns of Connecticut to the cafés of London to the sandy beaches of Nantucket, Green draws from her own life to craft each delicious story and the resulting tales resonate with women everywhere. Dune Road is another fun and fearless adventure that will take Green’s many fans from laughter to tears and back again. The novel is set in the beach community of a tony Connecticut town. Our heroine is a single mom who works for a famous—and famously reclusive—novelist. When she stumbles on a secret that the great man has kept hidden for years, she knows that there are plenty of women in town who would love to get their hands on it—including some who fancy the writer for themselves. Dune Road is the story of life in an exclusive beach town after the tourists have left for the summer and the eccentric (and moneyed) community sticks around. Dune Road will surely be the book to pack in beach bags next summer.
