Publisher's Synopsis
17-year-old Noah Sullivan lived a sheltered life under the care of his overprotective Aunt Prissy. Confined within the walls of Birchwood Cottage off the rocky coast of Maine, he never considered that there was more to life, until now. After a chance meeting with the charming and vibrant Lily Stephens, Noah is awakened to the prospect of imagination, adventure, and love.
Over the course of one transformative summer, Lily encourages Noah to push himself beyond his limitations and discover the man he wants to become. Noah is faced not only with the challenge of his budding friendship with Lily and his increasing jealousy, but he must also navigate the changing relationship with Aunt Prissy, who takes extreme measures to protect him from the dangers of the outside world.
At Ocean's Door is a timeless coming of age story set in the early twentieth century that explores friendship, perseverance, and faith while harkening back to a simpler time.
