Sweet Salt Air by Barbara Delinsky is set on an imaginary island off the coast of Maine.Two childhood friends who spent Summers there growing up reunite after not seeing each other for ten years. They come together to work together on a cookbook based on island food, rich with local recipes including somewhat magical herbs that are an island secret.
Secrets are uncovered and both women's lives changed forever by what they discover during this Summer. Delinsky is a great storyteller and with just the right amount of mystery, romance and a great setting, she pulled me in. This is the kind of book that sweeps you away and transports you to another place.
I found the ending a bit predictable, but it was fun while it lasted.
