Golden Summer in Beachside

Ester Cusano is happy to support her grandsons' culinary adventures, enjoy time with her feisty best friends, and savor the attention of handsome college dudes visiting Beachside. Even if sassy flirtations boost her confidence, Ester leaves genuine romance to her grandsons and their partners. Plus, her book club's selections provide enough steamy encounters to last a lifetime. But when she meets an unconventional college coed, Ester experiences her own romantic plot twist.
Silas Galani's terminally-ill wife had one last request: Live the life you've always wanted. Returning to college as a non-traditional student and earning a place on the recreational water polo team is a dream come true for Silas. When given the chance to take part in the ultimate collegiate rite of passage-spring break at the beach with his teammates-Silas doesn't hesitate. After a chance encounter with Ester (over pizza, of course), Silas is determined to learn more about the vivacious woman everyone calls Nana.
Even if their chemistry is undeniable, Silas must leave Beachside to pursue his goals and compete with his team. As Ester prepares to say goodbye and endure another love lost, Silas confronts her willingness to let their newfound romance perish. Ester has designed a life defying the status quo, but will her fears of suffering another broken heart thwart her own happily ever after?
