About the Book

Nobody knows the Hamptons like Jodi Della Femina, who captures the inside world of love, society, and scandal in this delicious summer page-turner. Toni Fratelli has a busy summer ahead. After several setbacks in Manhattan force her to move home to East Hampton, her To Do list is full. She has to help her father run his popular Italian restaurant, start up her own catering company--and be the Maid of Honor at her best friend's wedding on the beach. Unfortunately for Toni, the groom's mother is a competitive socialite who'll stop at nothing to make sure her son doesn't marry a local girl. The biggest caterer in the Hamptons is trying to run her new business out of town. And worse than anything, she seems to be losing her best friend to a circle of snooty bridesmaids. At least Toni finds love. When she meets a sexy surfer named Chris, it quickly turns into the most romantic summer fling of her life. But there's more to Chris than his vintage Mustang and used guitar ... and Toni's going to like the truth. Before the end of the summer she'll be forced to face her hopes - and fears - as trying to forgive becomes her biggest challenge of all.

Review :
"A frothy summer read." --InStyle magazine "Using humor and a "To Do" list that rings true, the authors provide an inside look at the worlds of restaurants and wedding planning through the perspectives of rich, well-developed, and often hilarious characters." --Booklist "Filled with romance, food, and an insider's view of the Hamptons." --East Hampton Press "Fun, fast-paced and clever, like eating a souffle, only funnier. This book is so hip, even insiders will be keeping a scorecard." --Steven Gaines, author of Fool's Paradise and Philistines at the Hedgerow "Jodi Della Femina has guided many a Hamptonite out of a traffic jam with her infamous Jodi's Shortcuts books and now she has given us the quintessential beach read full of laughs and heartwarming moments." --Katie Lee Joel, chef and food writer "A wonderful book that will give you an insider's look at the big money, big romance, food wars, catering wars, restaurant wars, local newspaper fights and comical vendettas that make East Hampton America's most talked about small town." --Jerry Della Femina, owner of Della Femina Restaurant
