"...this little corner of the world is ours for a little while to enjoy how we like. Then everyone else wakes up, and the house becomes theirs again, and we're pushed to the corners to watch the pomp and circumstance begin." Sloane expects this summer to be like the last. Full of sitting outside, getting 'sundrunk' as she and the littles make bracelets and eat caramel cookies, and she may or may not steal swigs of pinot grigio from the adults wine glasses. Then her summer changes, before it's even properly started. When Effie hears that her father's late godfather has sent them off to England to meet his family, she's relieved to have a summer away from the small town rumours that have been haunting her since last year. What she doesn't expect is a family of signet rings and tennis courts. Together, both girls find themselves in a world of hidden family secrets, lies, betrayal, and passion, as they grapple with the truth of both their own families. They learn to confront their own identity, and what lies behind the facade they have avoided questioning for many years. #oldmoney #Rich #British #summer #wlw #fiction #pls_read #lesbian
