Determined South Carolina matriarch Marietta Muir is hoping to help forge a lasting bond among her adult granddaughters, half-sisters fathered by Marietta's son and his three different wives. With Sea Breeze, the ancestral beach house on Sullivan's Island, slated for sale, "Mamaw" decrees that Dora, Carson, and Harper visit for three months or risk disinheritance. In their second month together, "the girls" discover that when they share the thorny issues they've been bearing individually—spousal abandonment, autism, alcoholism, maternal conflict, tragic memories—they can bridge their differences. Monroe narrates with charm and nuance, only occasionally hesitating between transitions.
VERDICT Not just for fans of the author or the Low-country setting, this program offers multigenerational viewpoints, empowering relationships, and dramatic interplay between humans and the natural world, thus appealing to a wider audience seeking heartwarming women's stories.
