Twenty-six-year-old Tanya Reese Morgan should have moved to Florida with her parents and left Mick Leighton and the memories behind. That would have been the smart thing to do—and she is a smart woman. Smart enough to take charge of their Seaside family business and turn the dated bar and grill into a trendy pub. But that was the driven, hard-working, professional Tanya. The brokenhearted Tanya, full of secrets and stubborn pride, didn't know what was good for her. If she did, she would have severed all ties with Mick, kissed her beloved Jersey Shore good-bye, and started a new life a thousand miles from the past. If she were that smart, she would have heeded her father's warning long ago and steered clear of Mick Leighton in the first place.But how do you part ways with the man you still love even though he's crushed all your dreams? At seventeen, it was easy for Tanya to believe that Mick was just waiting for her to grow up. It was even easier for her to defy her parents and spend a blissful summer in his arms. The hard part was discovering that her father had been right all along.As summers come and go, each one a bittersweet reminder of the love they once shared, Tanya Morgan and Mick Leighton—the man she can't forgive—go on to lead separate lives in their small coastal community.

Languages : en
Pages : 151
Book Description
A powerful examination of the artistic impulse, cultural identity, and family bonds Anita is waiting for Adam to be released from prison. They met twenty years ago at a New Year’s Eve party in Paris, a city where they both felt out of place—he as a recent arrival from the provinces, and she as an immigrant from the island of Mauritius. They quickly fell in love, married, and moved to a village in southwestern France, to live on the shores of the Atlantic with their little girl, Laura. In order to earn a living, Adam has left behind his love of painting to become an architect, and Anita has turned her desire to write into a job freelancing for a local newspaper. Over time, the monotony of daily life begins to erode the bonds of their marriage. The arrival of Adèle, an undocumented immigrant from Mauritius whom they hire to care for Laura, sparks artistic inspiration for both Adam and Anita, as well as a renewed energy in their relationship. But this harmony proves to be short-lived, brought down by their separate transgressions of Adèle’s privacy and a subsequently tragic turn of events. With the careful observation, vivid description, and emotional resonance that are the hallmarks of her previous novel, The Last Brother, in Waiting for Tomorrow Nathacha Appanah investigates the life of the artist, the question of cultural differences within a marriage, and the creation and the destruction of a family.
