Lillo Gray arrives at an exclusive Kennebunkport hotel in a borrowed dress and VW van, wondering why Jessica Parker invited her to this wedding. The two women haven't spoken since their unhappy days as fourteen-year-olds at fat camp. Now they inhabit completely different worlds. Jessica feels uncertain about marrying but has spent too much energy pleasing others to consider her own desires. When Jessica and her friends Allie and Diana catch the groom with his pants down in the hotel parking lot, Jessica feels both humiliated and relieved. The four women escape in Lillo's old van and drive north to Lighthouse Island. There, nursing wounded hearts and shattered dreams, they must discover how to rebuild their lives and find their way back to joy.
