This magnificent novel transports readers to the world of a prominent Boston family summering on the New Hampshire coast, and to the social orbit of a spirited young woman who falls into a passionate, illicit affair with an older man, with cataclysmic results.
The Fortune Rock's Quartet
collects four of Anita Shreve's most beloved novels-Fortune's Rocks, The Pilot's Wife, Sea Glass, and Body Surfing-for the first time. The novels highlight Shreve's ability to illuminate women's lives across different eras and share a delightful detail: they are all set in the same coastal New England home, one that has inspired Shreve for over a decade. Any house with age to it can tell a million stories about the families who have lived there, and Shreve has been quoted as saying, ''You could base an entire life's work on the people who come in and out of a house.''

Fortune's Rocks depicts a spirited young woman at the turn of the 20th century who falls into a passionate, illicit affair with an older man. In Sea Glass, a young couple's new marriage is rocked to the core by the 1929 stock market crash. The Pilot's Wife brings us to the present day, where Kathryn is unprepared her for the late-night knock that lets her know her husband has been killed in a plane crash. Sydney, the heroine of Body Surfing has already been once divorced and once widowed by the age of 29, and finds the fragile existence she has rebuilt for herself threatened when two brothers vie for her affections.

"There's something addictive about Shreve's tales," according to USA Today, and this quality is on full display in the critically acclaimed novels of The Fortune Rock's Quartet. No one writes more compellingly than Anita Shreve about marriage, family, the depths of our strength and resolve, and the supreme courage that it takes to love.

Amazing Sunscreen! Large Bottle and Pump is Great!
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50
I’ve been buying this Banana Boat sunscreen with SPF50 for a while and I wish I found it years ago because it makes putting on sunscreen so easy. Been buying it for family members as well! The pump is amazing—I keep one in my bathroom and one in my bedroom so I never forget. It’s a really big bottle so it lasts a long time, and it spreads super easily with no white cast at all, even on my face. The scent is really light and neutral too, which I love. It just melts into your skin, doesn’t feel sticky, and works for everything—face, hands, arms, legs. It’s one of those products you actually end up using every day because it’s so easy and convenient. I keep repurchasing it for a reason! Highly recommend!

My AmazonFinds/ SPF 50 Sunscreen
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50
I’ve been using this Banana Boat Sport SPF 50 sunscreen and I really like it. It goes on smoothly and absorbs quickly without feeling too greasy or heavy on the skin. I also like that it’s water and sweat resistant, which makes it perfect for outdoor activities or beach days. It provides strong sun protection and I feel confident using it when I’m out in the sun for long periods. The scent is light and not overpowering. Overall, it’s a reliable sunscreen that I would definitely buy again.

Very good sunscreen, advice from a pale-skinned person
Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Sport Lotion SPF 50
I'm Scottish by descent, and so is my skin. This stuff works well, is pleasant, not greasy and seems to hang on despite kiteboarding, surfing, cycling, whatever. Pleasant smell, good dispenser.
