Sasha et Ray passent tous leurs étés dans la vieille maison de famille de Long Island. Depuis l'enfance, ils partagent tout, lisent les mêmes livres, courent les mêmes sentiers sablonneux vers la plage, dorment dans le même lit. Mais ils ne se sont jamais rencontrés !Car le père de la jeune fille a été marié avec Lila, la mère de Ray. Et depuis leur séparation houleuse, chacun a refait sa vie et veille à ce que leurs nouvelles familles ne se voient jamais en même temps dans la maison des vacances. Mais cet été, le destin s'en mêle, aidé d'Emma, Quinn et Mattie, leurs trois sœurs irrésitibles. Les chemins de Ray et Sasha vont enfin se croiser. Et bien des certitudes vont voler en éclats.

La vecchia villa di Wainscott, a Long Island, è il campo di battaglia di Lila e Robert. Nessuno dei due ha voluto cedere la casa al mare durante il litigioso divorzio, perciò le loro due famiglie vi si alternano senza mai incontrarsi. Insieme hanno avuto tre figlie, Emma, Quinn e Mattie; poi si sono entrambi risposati, e così sono nati Ray, figlio di Lila, e Sasha, figlia di Robert. A ventidue anni Emma trova l’amore della sua vita, Jamie, ed è proprio a causa, o meglio, grazie a loro che finalmente il precario equilibrio delle due tribù s’incrina. Tutti danno il loro contributo: Quinn, che ha lo straordinario dono di ascoltare gli altri; Mattie, alle prese con un estraneo che sembra conoscere molto bene sua madre; poi Ray e Sasha, ormai diciassettenni, che non si sono mai conosciuti ma lo desiderano da sempre. Finora incontrarsi sembrava impossibile e trovarsi tutti sotto lo stesso tetto un miraggio. Ci vuole una scrollata energica e dolorosa perché qualcosa possa forse cambiare.

Alice, její starší sestra Riley a kamarád Pavel spolu jako děti prožívali krásná léta na ostrově, kde se chodí bosky, všichni se znají a kde neexistují starosti. Od dětství byli každé léto nerozluční a každé prázdniny začínaly tam, kde ty předchozí skončily, jako by mezi nimi ani neuběhlo dlouhých deset měsíců. Ale lidé se mění… Jak se Alice, Riley a Pavel vypořádají s tím, že mezi ně vstoupila láska, ale také velký problém? Bude tohle léto jejich poslední?

Daniel has spent centuries falling in love with the same girl. Life after life, crossing continents and dynasties, he and Sophia (despite her changing name and form) have been drawn together-and he remembers it all. Daniel has "the memory", the ability to recall past lives and recognize souls of those he's previously known. It is a gift and a curse. For all the times that he and Sophia have been drawn together throughout history, they have also been torn painfully, fatally, apart. A love always too short. Interwoven through Sophia and Daniel's unfolding present day relationship are glimpses of their expansive history together. From 552 Asia Minor to 1918 England and 1972 Virginia, the two souls share a long and sometimes torturous path of seeking each other time and time again. But just when young Sophia (now "Lucy" in the present) finally begins to awaken to the secret of their shared past, to understand the true reason for the strength of their attraction, the mysterious force that has always torn them apart reappears. Ultimately, they must come to understand what stands in the way of their love if they are ever to spend a lifetime together.
