Sea air, small-town secrets, and a tender romance stretch across a windswept New England island. A vivid slice of coastal life unfolds around Long Point Farm and the South Beach, where old sailors, regal geraniums, and a developing love story shape the day-to-day drama.
The Geranium Lady follows a late-Edwardian setting of harbor towns, family ties, and a circle of island friends. Through careful observation and quiet humor, the narrative focuses on choices, courage, and the way a community holds and tests its members. The book invites readers to feel the wind off the water, hear the surf, and watch relationships move from tension to trust.
