Best book by the Queen of summer novels Elin Gilderbrand. He and she are kind, a little strange and funny people. They met by chance at Mallory's beach cottage, at her brother's bachelor party. We got closer and told each other everything: problems, dreams, expectations. And they realized that it was easy and good for them together. Mallory and Jake agree to meet at the same time and place every year — just like in the old movie. These warm but strange encounters last for many years. Why have they been giving up something more all these years? Do the characters regret it, do they tell the truth to each other in those brief moments of meetings, and how do they live separately for the rest of the year? For eleven consecutive weeks, the novel remained in the New York Times bestseller list, being among the top 20 best-selling books on Amazon.
