Summary:
"For one woman, a sea
turtle
rescue leads to a summer of new beginnings… Toy Sooner kept her vow to her beloved mentor, the original
turtle
lady of the Isle of Palms. She left behind an abusive, dysfunctional lifestyle to become a strong single mother and an aquarist at the South Carolina Aquarium. But success has taken its toll, leaving Toy fearful of change and risks. It's only been through the enduring love of a close-knit group of women that she's finally started to find her footing. The
turtle
season begins the day Toy rescues a sick sea
turtle
on the beach. When Toy brings the
loggerhead
to the aquarium, she founds a
turtle
hospital and spends long nights working alongside her boss, Ethan. As the summer progresses and the sea turtles take their measured steps toward healing and freedom, Toy must find the strength within herself to make it safely to shore. A deeply satisfying novel written with an eye to nature and keen insights into the connections between women, Swimming Lessons is perfect for fans of Susan Wiggs and Mary Kay Andrews."
