From the New York Times bestselling author of The Jetsetters comes a witty and wonderful new novel about one unforgettable family and the journeys we take—across oceans and through heartbreak—to find our way back to love.

The Perkins family has problems. They’re scattered across the globe. Lee, a glamorous reality-TV star, is struggling with her mental health in the spotlight. Regan, her younger sister, has fallen for a romance scammer. Cord, their charming brother, is one drink away from losing it all. And their mother, Charlotte, still longs for the love she let slip away a decade ago, a lover who sailed off with her heart to a remote island in Greece.

When Regan disappears, Lee flies first-class to Athens to save her family—again. There, against the glittering Mediterranean and the shadow of the Acropolis, Lee contends with emotional nieces, relentless paparazzi, and her own fragile heart. Lee is desperately searching—for her sister, and for the hope and joy she thought was gone forever.

Across continents and crises, each member of the Perkins family must face the same question: is it ever too late to choose love?

Featuring characters from Ward’s bestselling novel The Jetsetters, Arrivals and Departures is brimming with humor, honesty, and hope. It’s the story of a family finding the courage to say the only words that can save us—I love you.

Commentaires

“Compulsively readable characters will have you turning page after page. A mystery, a family, and a storm of messy emotions are perfectly balanced by a beautiful summer backdrop.”New York Times bestselling author Haley Pham

“Ward deals with heavy themes with a deft hand, and readers will root for the flawed Perkinses even as they bury their heads in the (wine-soaked) sand . . . Book clubs will also be drawn to its satisfying but hardly neat ending.”Booklist, starred review

“To say that this book packs an emotional punch would be putting it lightly. Yet, as those who enjoyed The Jetsetters will no doubt know, Ward possesses a keenly balanced approach that allows her complex family drama to exist among Greece’s sun-dappled streets and fruit-laden groves. She pens deeply relatable, funny and ironic characters who grow well beyond the limits of their issues . . . Ward gracefully balances distance, misunderstandings and feelings of betrayal to craft a story that encompasses all the ways that a family can save one another, and how choosing to see—really see—them can be the difference between sinking and swimming.”—Bookreporter

“A family struggles to save itself in this follow-up to Ward’s bestselling The Jetsetters . . . Ward has a breezy writing style that zips along . . . A propulsive novel about the complex bonds of family.”—Kirkus Reviews

“A charming romp . . . Ward gives each family member a turn in the spotlight, darting among their points of view from one crisp cliffhanger to the next, pausing occasionally to reveal long-held family secrets or dispense pop psychology insights into the Perkins’ bad behavior.”Publishers Weekly
