One of my all-time favorite beach authors is coming to Sea Girt this Sunday for an afternoon of cocktails, lunch, and to dish about her new book!

BookTowne in Manasquan welcomes Elin Hilderbrand to The Parker House in Sea Girt this Sunday, June 19th, from 1 pm - 4 pm. Tickets are selling fast, so grab your girlfriends and come out for an awesome afternoon where you get to do lunch with this amazing author!

Elin Hilderbrand has written all of my favorite summer beach reads. She knows just how to capture life at the shore in her incredible characters as only someone who lives at the beach knows how to do. We beach people, are, after all, a special breed.

Elin's new book, coming out this week, is called "Here's To Us", and it's the story of three women who were once married to a celebrity chef named Deacon who suddenly dies. Now these beach girls have to gather to say goodbye -- which accounts for the accusations, lies, tears, and drama in this great read!

As an added bonus, Elin uses Deacon's character and profession as a reason to share some incredible recipes with all of us so that you, too, can master Fluffy White Champagne Cake, Tri-Berry Crumble, Shellfish Chowder, and Clams Casino Dip with Garlic Her Baguettes, which were some of Deacon's specialties. The recipes are right in the book!

I previously attended one of Elin's book events and had to opportunity to ask her how she juggles being a mom and finding time to write these spectacular stories. And she is so much like all of us at the Jersey Shore...she loves to run , write at the beach, picnic with her kids, and embarrass her children by singing out loud.

Tickets for Elin's luncheon at The Parker House in Sea Girt (290 1st Ave.) are $50 each and include a copy of the new book, appetizers, a cocktail, and a hot buffet. (A happy hour cash bar will be available throughout the event.)
