About this product
Product Information
Emmy Award winner, renowned lawyer and journalist, and View cohost Sunny Hostin makes her literary debut with this dazzling novel about a life-changing summer along the beaches of Martha's Vineyard.Welcome to Oak Bluffs, the most exclusive black beach community in the country. Known for its gingerbread Victorian-style houses and modern architectural marvels, this picturesque town hugging the sea is a mecca for the cr me de la cr me of black society--where Michelle and Barack Obama vacation and Meghan Markle has shopped for a house for her mom. Black people have lived in this pretty slip of the Vineyard since the 1600s and began buying property in the 1800s, making this posh town the embodiment of "old money." Every summer, Esperenza "Perry" Soto, a beautiful and talented Afro-Latina lawyer, escapes the fetid heat of New York City for the gorgeous weather, cool water, and stunning views Oak Bluffs offers. Sharing a cottage on the beach, owned by her "Ama", with her husband and two god sisters, Perry is looking forward to trading meetings and clients for days of languor and fun. When Memorial Day arrives and the season begins, some of the nation's wealthiest, most powerful, and famous from the worlds of politics, art, and entertainment meet to swim, dance, party, and chill. While a few can't leave work behind, others indulge in a different kind of business affair. But this summer on the Bluffs is different. Ama is moving to the south of France to reunite with her college sweetheart. She is going to give the house to one of her goddaughters and she has invited all three of them to spend the summer with her the way they did when they were kids. Each of the women want the house desperately. Each is grappling with a secret that they fear will make them lose Ama's approval and the house. . . .

Reviews
Summer on the Bluffs by the Emmy-award winning Sunny Hostin is a delicious, shimmering novel about the lives of Amelia Vaux Tanner and her three, grown-up godchildren. I was riveted by these fascinating, complicated women, and looked forward every day to opening Hostin's luminous novel and escaping, through its pages, to the golden dunes of Martha's Vineyard., "Hostin's debut novel is aspirational escapism at its best, balancing an idyllic setting and lush, evocative language with emotional heft and adroit social commentary... Hostin's story is a vast, intricate and ultimately rewarding one about love, family and self-fulfillment... In short, this book is summer incarnate." -- New York Times Book Review "A complicated, memorable tale of family, allegiances, secrets and summertime." -- Good Morning America "The Emmy Award-winning lawyer and journalist invites readers to the exclusive Black beach community of Oak Bluffs, Martha's Vineyard where the money is old, the secrets are deadly, and summer is more of a sport than a season...Think The Undoing with a hint of melanin, where everyone's wearing $300 sandals." -- Essence "The highly anticipated summer must-read from the talented co-host of The View is finally here... No one, including the reader, is prepared for the feelings and secrets exchanged in this novel about love, family, and the courage to make the hardest of decisions." -- Shondaland "Bestselling author and The View cohost Sunny Hostin has penned the ultimate beach read in Summer on the Bluffs." -- Popsugar "Summer on the Bluffs by the Emmy-award winning Sunny Hostin is a delicious, shimmering novel about the lives of Amelia Vaux Tanner and her three, grown-up godchildren.

Come for the ethereal setting and beautifully drawn characters, stay for the family dynamics, personal secrets and wisdom revealed." -- Boston Herald "Emmy-winning co-host of The View, Sunny Hostin invites readers to Martha's Vineyard in her fiction debut...what follows is a summer full of secrets that puts family ties to the ultimate test." -- Woman's World "Juicy... hits all the escapist notes you'd want in a tale of secrets and lies by omission while also tackling the complex nuances of womanhood, race, and place." -- Parents magazine "Lovingly rendered characters and beautiful depictions of Oak Bluffs...make this first book in a planned trilogy a great summer escape...Come for the debut novel from an Emmy-winning cohost of The View, stay for the diverse cast of characters in an aspirational, beachy escape." -- Booklist "Entertaining...Hostin nicely captures the Vineyard's social nuances...packs plenty of drama." -- Publishers Weekly "This book earns its place on the beach blanket." -- Kirkus Reviews, Summer on the Bluffs is a thoroughly enjoyable escape...
