Renowned chef Mickey Campbell has been feeling boxed in ever since the write-up dropped in The Baltimore Sun, naming her a “Thirty Under Thirty” and taking absolutely all the wind out of her sails in the process. It’s not that she can’t find inspiration—she loves cooking, creating something whole out of separate ingredients, and nourishing those who walk through her doors. But ever since the late rent notices started piling up and her relationship is sliding closer to the backburner, Mickey needs a haven to escape to.
Then her mother calls—her Grandmother, the great Cora Campbell and matriarch of the familial vacation home, Beech House—is engaged, and Mickey’s presence is required at the wedding. Sensing a tempting, yet inexplicable escape hatch, Mickey takes the journey out to Martha’s Vineyard to return to Beech House—a place she hasn’t crossed the threshold in over a decade.
As three generations of women come together under one roof for this once-in-a-lifetime family event, they become bolder, stronger versions of themselves, learning what is to embody the idea of family—amidst old secrets, new love, and one unforgettable summer on the beach.”
