Country Club Summer
ON SALE: JUNE 9, 2026
"Country Club Summer blends affluence, family drama, and female perspective into a novel that understands how much can be hidden inside polished routines. It captures the quiet unraveling of three women’s lives—their loyalties tested, their identities shifting, and the unspoken weight of expectation pressing in until the truth can no longer stay buried. Rachel Cullen keeps the story readable and sharp, giving readers a summer novel with gossip, tension, and a little bite."
—Samantha Olsen, Manhattan Book Review
