Translated into more than twenty-five languages, the books that make up “The MacLeaniverse” are beloved by readers worldwide. In addition to her novels, Sarah is a leading advocate for the romance genre, speaking widely on its place as a feminist text and a cultural bellwether. A former columnist for the&nbsp;New York Times, the&nbsp;Washington Post&nbsp;and&nbsp;Bustle, she is a founding board member of Authors Against Book Bans and the co-host of the weekly romance podcast,&nbsp;Fated Mates. A product of Rhode Island summers and New England Storms, Sarah now lives in New York City. ABOUT&nbsp;THESE SUMMER STORMS Alice Storm hasn’t been welcome at her family’s magnificent private island off the Rhode Island coast in five years—since she was cast out to build a life beyond the Storm name, influence, and untold billions. But the shocking death of her larger-than-life father changes everything. Now Alice plans to keep her head down, pay her final respects (such as they are), and leave the minute the funeral is over. Unfortunately, her father had other plans. The eccentric, manipulative patriarch left his family a final challenge—an inheritance game designed to upend their world. The rules are clear: spend one week on the island, complete his assigned tasks, and receive the inheritance. A week on Storm Island is no easy task for Alice. Every corner of the sprawling old house is bursting with chaos: Her older sister’s secret love affair. Her brother’s unyielding arrogance. Her younger sister’s constant analysis of the vibes. Her mother’s cold judgment. And all under the stern, watchful gaze of Jack Dean, her father’s intriguing, too-handsome second-in-command. It will be a miracle if Alice manages to escape unscathed. A smart and tender story about the transformative power of grief, love, and family, this luscious novel explores past secrets, present truths, and futures forged in the wake of wild summer storms. <img src="https://img.evbuc.com/https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.evbuc.com%2Fimages%2F1011550833%2F2312721413293%2F1%2Foriginal.20250417-191224?h=740&amp;w=1200&amp;auto=format%2Ccompress&amp;q=75&amp;sharp=10&amp;s=8427eae36f27194eb17a23156cd05bfb"> ABOUT THE CONVERSATION PARTNER USA Today Best Selling and Audie winning author Adriana Herrera was born and raised in the Caribbean, but for the last fifteen years has let her job (and her spouse) take her all over the world. She loves writing stories about people who look and sound like her people, getting unapologetic happy endings. The New York Times once called her book "sweet, thoughtful, and delightfully filthy too." When she’s not dreaming up love stories, planning logistically complex vacations with her family or hunting for discount Broadway tickets, she’s a trauma therapist in New York City, working with survivors of domestic and sexual violence. Adriana is represented by Taylor Haggerty at Root Literary. <img src="https://img.evbuc.com/https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.evbuc.com%2Fimages%2F938422333%2F2312721413293%2F1%2Foriginal.20250117-173026?h=740&amp;w=1200&amp;auto=format%2Ccompress&amp;q=75&amp;sharp=10&amp;s=04a4e37bc2f94d7a54de062c015c78d8"> <a href="https://lovestruckbooks.com/">Lovestruck Books</a>&nbsp;is a Romance Bookstore in Cambridge, MA.<a href="https://lovestruckbooks.com/">&nbsp;Visit our website</a>&nbsp;to sign up for our newsletter and be the first to know about events and other news.
