For everyone who loves reading long novels . . .

As the cover says, it's a story about all the relationships we have with our Mom, Dad, siblings, friends, first love and everyone around us. 

This is not a book which one can complete in couple of days. It'll take more than a week to settle with book. 

It begins with Ronnie being reluctantly taken by her mother to live with her father and spend a summer with him along with her little brother Jonah. She has not spoken to her father for past three years and here she is, having to unwillingly spend few weeks with a person she hates. Also her father lives in a place which is complete opposite to noisy and fast life of her hometown Manhattan. However, she makes friends in this slow-paced beach town but that leads her to some trouble. She also hates the fact that her alienated dad is trying to get her back to playing piano which she stopped doing when he had left her family. During these days she meets a guy who has fallen for her seeing her kind and calm nature.She also learns to ignore others and trust her own instincts.

This summer is something very special and will be etched forever in her memory. Why did her Dad leave them? Why this summer she was so forced by her mother to stay with Dad? Will she forgive her Dad? Why is the stained-glass window so special to her Dad? Will her first love be by her side? Will she come out of the trouble her friend caused? So many ups and downs make this one an interesting read. 

All the different troubles, confusion, (mis)judgments about people, love, tension in Ronnie's life is carefully put together by the author that at no point would make you think that you're lost in the plot.

This book about all the different relations that we have with people around us. How someone's trust can change our perspective towards them. How parents instead of taking decisions for their children should trust their children's decisions and in case something goes wrong, their support restores children's faith in themselves and also in parents.
