All the Summers In Between

“A mesmerizing story of the complexities of female friendship and the yearning of women to live full lives. Foster depicts the 1970s with sensitivity and a rich command of detail, and as the pace picks up toward a perfectly executed denouement, you won’t be able to turn away.” —Beatriz Williams

“Dazzling… A tale of glamour, intrigue and friendship set during a transformative era.” —First for Women

"This one had me racing to turn the pages. Thea, a local teen, meets Margot, a wealthy summer resident, and the two form an unlikely friendship tested with unimaginable twists and turns. I won’t say more — except pick it up... and cancel your plans for the rest of the week!" —Katie Couric Media 

“This intense and beautifully written tale of complex female friendship, bonded by a dark secret,  transports the reader to the upscale Hamptons of the sixties and seventies for a delicious taste of glamor and intrigue.” —Rhys Bowen, New York Times bestselling author

"Another engaging and thrilling novel for summer! All The Summers In Between takes us to 1977 in The Hamptons when Margot blows back into Thea’s life after ten years, and we know everything is going to change. With a bygone-Hamptons setting, deep friendships that return in a roar, and love that can survive it all, Brooke Lea Foster carries us with skill and suspense into a glittering world [that] has it all: mystery, friendship, secrets, enchanting setting, and of course love. With a reminder that women must find what is most important at the core of their own lives, make room in your beach bag for this mesmerizing book.” —Patti Callahan Henry, New York Times bestselling author of The Secret Book of Flora Lea

“Foster's crisp delineation of character, skill at suspense, and ability to evoke an intriguing time and place hit a new high: I simply could not put this mesmerizing book down. Two friends, two very different decades (the 60s and 70s), and all the mounting tension and trust issues that friendships in our youth can uniquely forge and sustain long after they may have run their course. In Thea, Foster's very real and relatable protagonist, readers will see themselves and experience her every hopeful move and misstep as girlhood pal Margot re-enters her calm domestic life ten years later like a time bomb. Another beautifully written historical fiction from a great storyteller, just in time for summer.” --Natalie Jenner, internationally bestselling author of The Jane Austen Society, Bloomsbury Girls & the forthcoming Every Time We Say Goodbye (2024)

This is a summer book to read all year long! An amazing story! " —Lynda Cohen Loigman, author of The Matchmaker's Gift and The Wartime Sisters
