The Island Club

1956. Balboa Island looks like paradise. But behind its immaculate façade, three women have everything to lose.
Milly Kinkaid moved her young family from Hollywood to the idyllic island entice her increasingly distant husband to come home earlier after work. Now, he's barely coming home at all.
Adele Lambert has spent twenty years hiding her true identity after a scandal drove her from tennis — and the only life she loved. Now, to stay afloat, she must step back onto the court and risk exposing everything she has fought to conceal.
Sylvia Johnson helped create the Island Club, the glittering heart of local society: a place for members to swim, play tennis and dine in style. Now her husband’s reckless choices have not only placed their family's future in grave danger, but also the entire community she holds dear.
When their lives collide on the tennis courts of the Island Club, an unlikely friendship offers each woman a second chance. But first they must confront the truths they have buried—and decide how much they are willing to risk for the freedom to begin again.

Set against the sun-drenched beaches of Balboa Island, with its prim and proper 1950s facade, The Island Club is a story of love, loneliness and the lies we tell ourselves—and what can be gained when the truth is finally revealed.
