This is my first book that I have read from this author. I liked how the author painted the picture of this story. I could almost feel that I was at this country club and other scenes in this novel. This novel was told in three POV's, Ned the father, Darcy the daughter and Flick the new next door neighbor. Although the story was nice and easy to read, I was a bit disappointed about the ending. Darcy dealt with several issues that are major issues in real life and I feel the author could have spent more time "helping" this character at the end. It felt very rushed at the end and everything was solved in basically two chapters. Although an easy read I wish more time was spent on the ending.

I love a good beach read to break up the murder and mayhem I usually ready and I was excited for this book. Unfortunately this beach read didn't do it for me. It ready very young adult for me and I couldn't connect to any of the characters. High school me would of loved it but 40ish me just couldn't get into it. Thank you to NetGalley and Atria for the ARC.

A very easy and quick beach read.
Honestly it felt like it was on the cusp of a YA novel to me! A bit of drama in a small towns “country club”
Very predictable, but an easy enjoyable read. I would have liked to give it more than 3 stars cause I did enjoy it. It was just a little too fast and predictable for my taste.
I’d you want something that is a quick and easy story to read between more substantial books this is definitely a palate cleanser.

Thank you to the publisher and netgalley for an arc of this book. This is the first book I have read from this author. This book is about Ned and his family, mainly his daughter at the Mayhaven country club. It also includes the point of view of another employee at the club. The book is told from multiple point of views. There is drama and some mystery. It was a light, fun, summer read.

Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to review this ebook title. Great story by Hannah McKinnon! These are my opinions of the story and are not swayed based on the free reviewer ebook.

A charming summer club in Massachusetts to escape to this fine summer. Things are not always perfect and Ned really has a time trying to keep things together, but he does his best and juggling a lot throughout the story to keep everyone happy.

Ned’s daughter, Darcy was such a creative character along with Flick. Both their stories weaved together really well and I greatly enjoyed following them, even if it was a bit rocky for them at times.

This was a great story that I really enjoyed overall. It really spoke about family, concern, fear, sticking together, love, friends and being kind.

There was a lot of inner monologue, which I’m not a huge fan of, and the troubles our characters face didn’t really interest me, so I stopped after chapter 1 (6%). That said, it feels accessible and comfortable enough, probably a 3-4 stars for the target audience.

Thank you to NetGalley and Atria for the ARC.

This talented author has written a page turner. Realistic characters keep the story moving quickly. I like this author. Thanks Netgalley

Any easy beach read, which is exactly what I was looking for. I had just finished The Darlings, by the same author, so my brain was already primed for the setting and beachy vibes. It was not as good as The Darlings in my opinion, but if you need a quick summer read, it's perfect.

This was a good, slower paced read, although I did like The Darlings a little more. I found the storyline of this book hard to follow at times and couldn’t connect to the characters.

Hannah McKinnon does a great job of descriptive writing and I loved feeling like I was in Massachussetts at a beach club named Mayhaven. Following the storyline of Ned the president of the country club, Darcy the daughter of Ned and the new kid next door, Flick who was just hired at the country club. The drama kept me entertained, predictable at times, but still enjoyable. The ending was kind of abrupt, however the author did a good job of wrapping up storylines toward the end.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

I cant say I loved this one as much as her other book. It was okay. There was plenty of drama with little character growth which was fine for the genre McKinnon is writing in. This is a great book if you’re needing a break between something heavy or slower paced. I enjoyed the authors descriptions of locations and scenery throughout the book.

This book is set in a small New England town and is told from the perspectives of Ned, his daughter Darcy, and their new neighbor, Flick. I was super excited to read this one because from the description, it was giving off The Summer I Turned Pretty vibes (country clubs, kids let loose in the summertime, etc., etc.) but with maybe a little darker of a twist.

I liked the diversity of the characters and Darcy’s brother, Adam, especially (as the sibling of two brothers with ASD). I found that the beginning of the book dragged on a bit. There were a lot of words but not a lot happening and the things that were happening, weren’t really pulling me in. The overarching moral of the story, so to speak, is an important one, though. Having been a teenage girl going through similar things as Darcy, I could relate in some manner.

The ending happened kind of abruptly and I kept waiting for something to happen with the RV that was seemingly such a pain point at the beginning of the book but nothing ever came of it. Would have loved to see Ned go a bit unhinged.

Some trigger warnings to be aware of: weight loss/eating disorders, SA

I have been a Hannah McKinnon fan for many years, but this book underwhelmed me. I was not invested in any of the characters and it just felt flat. Class divisions among the haves and have nots is generally something that I would gravitate to, but not this time. To boil it down to its most simplistic terms, this is a book about what happens at an exclusive resort club community, and the people who work there and the way members are treated and treat others. Having said that I would recommend for public libraries, as it is a light and breezy summer read that will entertain.

I didin't love this book. I felt like it drug on. I was so frustrated that the parents couldn't see what was going on in front of them with the golf pro.

A pretty quick read, told in three POVs. I liked Ned the best, bc he seemed to really try and be good to everyone around him even when everything seemed to totter off course. The storyline is somewhat predictable, and I think one or two were red herrings. All the characters seemed good hearted and Adam deserved his own novella.

A quick summer read for those looking for a beach read with a little something different. Three and a half stars.

This is a great book if you’re needing a break between something heavy or slower paced. I enjoyed the authors descriptions of locations and scenery throughout the book - this is definitely a great vacation type read. There were a lot of small storylines in the beginning, and it was difficult to see what the direction/purpose was, but I feel like things began falling into place at the end. This is not the type of book you’d find yourself wanting to read again, but still enjoyable and light hearted.

Thank you to the author and NetGalley!

I LOVE LOVE LOVED THIS BOOK! it was such a great summer read every page was so captivating This was my first read by this author and it won’t be my last.

Thank you net galley for this ARC. This was a quick summer read that involves conflict, young love, and complicated relationship s between neighbors and co-workers. A quick and enjoyable read

I loved the characters. The author tackled some important issues while keeping the novel flowing throughout. Great summer read.
