A Novel

By: Meg Mitchell Moore

Narrated by: Jaime Lamchick, John Pirhalla, Petrea Burchard, Charlie Thurston, Stacy Gonzalez, Mike Ortego

“If you love Elin Hilderbrand and The Great Gatsby, Moore’s confection of a novel, set on Block Island, is a satisfying treat.”—The New York Times

From national bestselling author Meg Mitchell Moore comes a sparkling, escapist novel following a young woman entwined in the opulent lives of her neighbors, set against a backdrop of scandal, secrets, and a not-so-subtle love triangle, perfect for readers of The Wedding People and Pineapple Street.

It’s the beginning of the summer, and Nicola Carr has just arrived on Block Island, RI, eager for a fresh start and some R&R. But her plans for a tranquil summer are quickly derailed when she meets the neighbor who owns the mansion next door, Juliana George, an enigmatic entrepreneur with a past shrouded in mystery.

Juliana, CEO and founder of a hot fashion-tech company, is spending the summer on Block Island preparing for a major IPO. But she’s chasing her dreams in more ways than one. This summer she hopes to rekindle a flame with a man from her past—a man who has a surprising connection to her neighbor Nicola.

Taylor Buchanan, the wife of Nicola’s cousin, is second-in-command of a real estate empire. Her life is exactly the way she planned it, and there’s nothing she’ll let get in her way of Having It All. But when everything suddenly verges on the edge of collapse, she has no choice but to take matters into her own hands.

As Nicola, Juliana, and Taylor’s summers unfold, the three women are set on a collision course that leads to inevitable self-discovery, unforgivable betrayal, an unavoidable love triangle—and, most unexpectedly, a dead body.

Great ready

Easy read, storyline seems simple then plot twist shakes it up a little to keep you engaged. Good enough to read again

Loved this book so much!

Totally entertaining and captivating! I devoured it in less than 24 hours. My favorite Meg Mitchell Moore yet!

Fun and frolicking

A light beach read with twists and turns that never makes you think too hard

Cliche and predictable

The reader was good but all her men sounded the same except for the elderly guy. The story was very cliche and silly.

Meh. Ok story but did Moore get tired of writing it?

Interesting enough in an Elin Hildebrand sort of way but the ending was entirely unclimactic and unsatisfying. Also, good job reading but HOW do you land a job narrating a book for Harper Audio and not learn how to pronounce the names and places therein? Manassas, Monticello, Ms.Moran, etc etc. SO CRINGE.

Loved the new twist on Gatsby

I loved how the author brought Gatsby into the modern world keeping all of the pieces that withstand time, but modernizing the characters to show that the story is just as relevant today.

Gatsby in Block Island

This book had a lot of parallels to The Great Gatsby. It held my attention. It had a dishy, juicy quality, but also some sadness.

real story

well written with excellent believable characters . you felt u were there watching the struggles of life

Intriguing Storyline

I liked the various points of view and voices used to tell this story. Also, I like that the story was told in a non-linear way. There were plenty of surprises along the way to keep my interest!

The twist and turns!
