About this title

Review

"Mary Alice Monroe understands that a house is never just a house. As we revisit The Beach House we are immersed in the heartbeat and pulse of her South Carolina Lowcountry as never before. Monroe's singular ability to blend the natural world with the emotional world allows for a gorgeous novel, wondrously both bittersweet and also life-affirming. The story reveals its secrets with shorebirds and human hearts at the center of its graceful axis. No one else tells an insightful and powerful story quite like Mary Alice Monroe--and in BEACH HOUSE FOR RENT, you won't be able to stop reading--for even that glass of sweet tea."----New York Times bestselling author Patti Callahan Henry

"Reading this novel feels like a long, luxurious trip to the beach. Mary Alice Monroe writes gorgeously, with authority and tenderness, about the natural world and its power to inspire, transport, and to heal. Readers will love this story of two unforgettable women-one reeling from an unexpected tragedy, the other drawn into a daring and passionate new love."----#1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs
