    Summary

    And this is how Isabel Conklin sees Conrad Fisher for the first time in a decade: in the narrow galley kitchen of a sailboat called Beckon, naked under her terrycloth bathrobe, mascara smeared beneath her lower lashes, balancing a Diet Coke and Taylor’s Dyson Airwrap in one hand and a fistful of saltines and blue raspberry taffy in the other. It is, to put it mildly, not how she would have preferred the reunion to go.

    (Ten years after Susannah's funeral and five years into a successful acting career, Belly books a sailing charter for her best friend's bachelorette weekend. No one told her it was Conrad Fisher's boat.)

    Summary

    The double doors open with a thwack as she pads into the kitchen, humming a song in French off-key. And there, standing at the kitchen island in seersucker swim trunks and a white tee, is… a man. A stranger. Belly feels sort of like a fucking idiot, because she sees this stranger and it’s like a chorus of angels starts playing in her head. Or, like, at least a Taylor Swift song.

    (Newly home from Paris, Belly decides to take a job babysitting a rich family's mansion on Cape Cod for the winter. She expects nine months of studying for the GRE, watering plants, and watching old movies. She does not expect their very hot twenty-four-year-old son to start showing up.)

    Summary

    "You shouldn't be out here," Conrad says without looking at her, even though he's only here so she can be too. "So close to the water when it's this dark."
    Belly sits down anyway. "Then neither should you."

     

    (Belly kisses Conrad that first night, at the bonfire. somehow everything changes and stays the same.)

    Summary
