| The family always spent summer in Waterby on Fire Island; so not breaking from her childhood tradition, twenty-one year-old Alice and her older sister, twenty-four year-old Riley, are there. The tomboyish Riley actually is working as a lifeguard.
Also on the island for the first time in two summers is Riley's best friend, Paul. His father is dead, and he never sees his mother. However, he is not back on Fire Island for a vacation; Paul must decide what to do about the family house not used last summer. Paul also has to decide what to do about his neighbors, as he wants Alice but fears hurting Riley if he makes a move; he also believes Alice is attracted to him but, like him, does not want to hurt her sister. Riley has issues too that impact the other two members of the triangle. Fans of Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants will enjoy the first adult tale; as the players are somewhat grown up, though at times they behave more like teens, especially when conflict arises. The storyline is fun to follow as change is in the air of Fire Island with Paul wanting to come out and declare his love for Alice. The Pants crowd will enjoy this fine summer entry, but the lead trio has not fully turned adult. | |||
