The Coleman Family must band together to support one another - before everything falls apart.Hilary and Aria have never needed anyone but each other. Because Aria's father left Nantucket before she was born, Hilary isn't sure why anyone would fall in love on purpose, and she's fought hard to become a sought-after interior designer for Sotheby's - a career she's very proud of. Plus, now that Aria left Tufts University, she's been tagging along with her mother as an interior design apprentice, which thrills them both.But everything changes in August, when Hilary notices something wrong with her eyes. This happens smack-dab in the middle of a gig out in San Francisco, where her ex just happens to live these days - and where she and Aria play and "happy family and " with him in a way that breaks both of their hearts.As Hilary and Aria whip back and forth from San Francisco to Nantucket, Hilary's eyes continue to worsen, and she begins to reckon with the fact that her eyes - and her career - might be on the verge of failing. Add to that a handsome stranger who's falling for her - and the fact that the moment he learns about her eyes, he'll probably drop her.But not all is as it seems, and as Hilary and Aria learn and grow within their careers, their relationships, and with one another, they find ways to fight their inner darkness and find hope, despite terrible circumstances. As time goes on, Hilary learns to lean on the rest of her Coleman Family for support, rather than box them out due to pride.Waves of Time is book three of The Coleman Series, a heart-wrenching yet hopeful family drama that unfolds between the glittering shores of Nantucket Island and Martha's Vineyard.
