“We love being in love, that's the truth on't. If we had not met Joan, we should have met Kate, and adored her. We know our mistresses are no better than many other women, nor no prettier, nor no wiser, nor no wittier.

“Nantucket is a place where some kind of magic happens, it's where I met my husband 32 years ago, and we've been together since the day we met.

I see people falling in love or recovering from some conflict here, and I wanted to capture that.” PeopleThinkingLoveYearsKindHappensWantedTogetherFallMagicMetsHusbandConflictYears AgoFalling In LoveMy HusbandCaptureRecoveringNantucket Author:Nancy Thayer
