Joey returns home after working aboard for four years to live with her brother and sister-in-law. She and her new husband is adjusting to their new life together.  However, Joey finds herself drawn to the married man next door. He is the headmaster at the local school, who is almost double her age. While Joey's attraction to the next door neighbor grows, she starts to realize something is not quite right with the family next door.

I have read another book by Lisa Jewell and enjoyed her work. However, I found this book to be very predictable. I thought some of the characters to be a bit creepy and stalkerish. I am guessing it leads to the idea that even small towns have questionable characters. Overall, a good read but, I wish there was a bit more going on.

Alice Lake finds a man sitting on the beach in the rain with no coat and doesn't remember how he got there or his name. The single mom sympathizes with him and invites him to stay with her.  Lily Monrose is a recently married 21 year old immigrant in a new country. However, her husband disappears one day and she can't get in contact with him. She knows no one and when she  reaches out to the police for help, they tell her her husband's identity isn't real. Twenty three years earlier, a family with two young teenagers are vacationing in their annual seaside home. However, a young suitor is attracted to Kirsty and something makes her brother, Gray uncomfortable around him. How are the three characters related? What is it about Kirsty's suitor that makes Gray uncomfortable? Who is the man on the beach? 

The characters were richly written and beautifully developed. You can't help to root for them and yell "What were you thinking?!" while reading. The story keeps readers on the edge of their chairs while wondering how are the characters related. It's a beautiful tale of three imperfect characters searching for their version of love.
