Your perfect escape awaits! Three friends. Two secrets. And a holiday to remember forever.

Deedee Merriman feels like she’ll never get over losing the love of her life, Joe. But this summer there is a surprise waiting for her… one she could never imagine.

With a big birthday fast approaching and determined to stay vibrant and keep a youthful outlook on life she invites her friends, Gina and Rosie to celebrate with her in New York, one of her favourite places, and where she still feels closest to Joe.

On arrival, there’s a secret gift waiting for Deedee, in the form of a small, ramshackle beach house in the beautiful Hamptons. The place where Joe spent his childhood. And the house isn’t the only secret waiting for her. Will discovering the truth change everything for the woman who’s been waiting so long for her heart to heal?

Wish You Were Here is an emotional, romantic story about female friendship and finding love after loss in the city that never sleeps and the sand dunes with stunning sunsets of the Hamptons.
