Launch Night for Summerland Cove in Wiscasset, Maine

On June 2, the day Summerland Cove came into the world, I got to celebrate on the water in Wiscasset, Maine, just up the road from the place that inspired the book. The water was shining, the room was full, and after two years of living with this family in my head, the novel was finally in readers' hands.

Thank you to everyone who came out, raised a glass, and stood in line for a signed copy. You made this night unforgettable. Here are a few of my favorite moments.
