Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Jetsetters comes a witty and wonderful new novel about one unforgettable family and the journeys we take--across oceans and through heartbreak--to find our way back to love. The Perkins family has problems. They're scattered across the globe. Lee, a glamorous reality-TV star, is struggling with her mental health in the spotlight. Reagan, her younger sister, has fallen for a romance scammer. Cord, their charming brother, is one drink away from losing it all. And their mother, Charlotte, still longs for the love she let slip away a decade ago, a lover who sailed off with her heart to a remote island in Greece. When Reagan disappears, Lee flies first-class to Athens to save her family--again. There, against the glittering Mediterranean and the shadow of the Acropolis, Lee contends with emotional nieces, relentless paparazzi, and her own fragile heart. Lee is desperately searching--for her sister, and for the hope and joy she thought was gone forever. Across continents and crises, each member of the Perkins family must face the same question: is it ever too late to choose love? Featuring characters from Ward's bestselling novel The Jetsetters, Arrivals and Departures is brimming with humor, honesty, and hope. It's the story of a family finding the courage to say the only words that can save us--I love you.

Critical Reviews
"Compulsively readable characters will have you turning page after page. A mystery, a family, and a storm of messy emotions are perfectly balanced by a beautiful summer backdrop."--New York Times bestselling author Haley Pham "Ward deals with heavy themes with a deft hand, and readers will root for the flawed Perkinses even as they bury their heads in the (wine-soaked) sand . . . Book clubs will also be drawn to its satisfying but hardly neat ending."--Booklist, starred review
