“A radiant, sun-flushed summer novel packed with beaches, secrets, and sisters. Foster has imbued this brilliant, feminist beach read with skill and heart and optimism. This is historical fiction at its very best, as relevant as this morning’s news, as enjoyable as a summer day at the beach.” –Nancy Thayer, New York Times bestselling author

"Both a generational mystery and a feminist coming-of-age, Our Last Vineyard Summer is an engrossing and poignant look at family in all its complicated depth. It had me gripped from the first page." –Annabel Monaghan, USA Today bestselling author of Nora Goes Off Script
"A heartfelt tribute to sisterhood and womankind...a perfect blend of secrets, misdeeds, and unexpected love...a gripping, timely story." –Amy Poeppel, author of The Sweet Spot
