What you need to know before your trail

Thirty-year-old Morgan O’Keefe is ready for a change. Though she loves many things about raising her young son at home, she longs to return to her career as a scientist.

Artist Natalie Reynolds is thrilled to escape New York and house-sit for her aunt on Dragonfly Lake. Especially when a handsome neighbour turns out to be her unexpected rescuer…

Bella Barnaby must return home to support her family while her mother recovers from an accident. While a handsome architect has designs on her, Bella harbours long-held dreams of her own.

Three women, each at their own crossroads. As their paths intertwine, it’s clear Dragonfly Lake has much in store that will take them to the most unexpected of places.

Travel Guide

Nantucket Island

Nantucket Island

Nantucket Island

Immerse yourself in a carefree and sandy paradise of a Nantucket summer. The Nancy Thayer version of Nantucket really is somewhere to relax and see the dramas of other people’s lives play out other than your own.

Nantucket comes truly alive in her books. There’s a nice mix of Charles Dickens style charm gleaming from the glistening cobblestones streets and historic brick buildings.

Be sure to walk on the beach, in the sea and watch out for the stunning beachside houses as seen in the novel. You’ll be wanting to move here before too long

An island can be one of two things – the place to escape to for  bit of piece and quiet or a small, remote and insular looking location where you die for some company, civilization and involvement in the real world again.

Nantucket with its islanders and summer people can be both, but there’s never a dull moment!
