Two generations of friends and family explore the friendships, loves, and losses of the past while finding out just how events that transpired years ago can still affect the future in this made-for-television miniseries based on the best-selling novel by author Luanne Rice. Years ago, everyone in the quiet Northeastern coastal town of Hubbard's Point knew the three best friends who spent their summers basking in the warm rays of the sun, eventually coming to be known affectionately as "The Beach Girls." Many years have passed since those carefree salad days, though, and as the daughter of one of the Beach Girls returns with her widowed father to walk the same sands that her mother strolled upon years ago, the memories of the past prove invaluable to the growth of the future.
