Book Launch Party for The Summer Knows

Join us for a reading, craft talk, and light refreshments to celebrate Sarah E. Pearsall's debut novel, "The Summer Knows."

At 31, single mom Adrienne Harris is stuck slinging fried clams at a tourist trap in Florida—far from the life she imagined growing up in Harbor Point, where she once dreamed of becoming a chef and marrying her childhood love, Quinn Merrit. Her life derailed at seventeen after a heartbreak and an unplanned pregnancy. When her eccentric grandmother nearly burns down the family cottage, Adrienne is forced to return home, confronting the small town that remembers her scandal. But with an unexpected offer from local fishmonger Christopher Crane to run a kitchen at her grandfather’s old fish market, Adrienne sees a chance to rebuild her dreams—and maybe even her heart.
