Meer over het boek

This modern retelling of a classic transports you to summer in the Hamptons, where social classes collide, rumors abound, and love appears unexpectedly. Elizabeth Bennet, who has spent her life in this beach town, dreads the annual influx of wealthy Manhattanites. After years of putting her dreams aside to help her family's struggling bakery, she longs for change. Her routine is disrupted when her sister starts dating the charming Charlie Pierce, who introduces Lizzy to his wealthy friend, Will Darcy. Will is everything Lizzy dislikes: aloof, arrogant, and rich. He resents money and is frustrated by Charlie's attempts to set him up with Lizzy, whose sharp tongue and bluntness challenge him. Despite their differences, Will finds himself unable to stop thinking about her. As they navigate their complicated feelings, a series of misunderstandings threaten Charlie and Annabelle's relationship, pulling Will and Lizzy into the chaos. With a hurricane looming, a hypocritical stepmother, and a deceptive developer, they must sift through gossip and lies to protect their loved ones' happiness—even at the cost of their own. Ultimately, they learn that love requires vulnerability, and sometimes, the only way to survive is to let yourself fall.
