About this listen

Tori Graham is in need of a holiday. Trying to piece her heart back together after losing the love of her life, she escapes to Blossom Cottage, with its picturesque views of the sea. And plans to spend the summer in gorgeous Sandcastle Bay, where her best friend Melody Rosewood lives.

Tori’s not expecting her summer by the beach to be eventful, until she meets handsome and mysterious Aidan Jackson. Aidan looks after the holiday cottage Tori is staying in. Healing from past hurts, he wants to avoid any further chance of heartache. But could this newcomer be the breath of fresh air he needs?

Finding herself embracing life in the coastal community, Tori starts to fall in love with Sandcastle Bay and its welcoming cast of residents. But that’s not all she begins to fall for, as Tori is swept away by Aidan’s genuine heart and mischievous sense of humour. The attraction between them is undeniable, but will a simple holiday romance be enough? As Tori’s stay in Sandcastle Bay comes to an end she has a tough decision to make.

Has her heart found a new place to call home?

The storyline is ok, it's a slushy essay listening story, however I found phrases of it so repetitive repeating parts of the storyline on many occasions, very novice.
Also was not overly taken with the whining voice of the narrator.

Potential but could have been better

Lovely storyline for easy listening. I liked the narrator with her easy listening voice. I will be looking for Holly Martins next book

Enjoyable love story

An easy listening story. I feel there should be some sort of order on the books though having listened to a previous book of Holly’s.

Another lovely listen

I’m part way through the story & the narration is so grating its making it difficult to continue & putting me off the story!

I usually love Holly Martins books! I feel bad cititicising but honestly the way the story is read especially when trying to differentiate between characters is cringing.

Perhaps I just prefer a stronger sounding voice with substance & I’m being fussy..... sorry!

I should have tried a sample before buying, so it’s my own fault.

Narration not for me...

storyline from start to finish with some great characters and antics within the book. The narrator was very good at using different voices for the characters.

A lovely....

I love Holly Martin books. The story was good but I felt it was a bit rushed. This in turn spoilt it for me.
The narrator does have an annoying voice especially with certain characters.
I did get over these bits & managed to enjoy it in the end.

A Really Lovely Book

good story and carried on with reading on kindleCouldn’t carry in with this due to narrators voice- way too fast and not relaxing which I’m looking for and didn’t like voice in general
Could audible offer a choice of narrators - I just can’t listen to some people

I loved this book, it was well written, the characters came to life and the humour was great. I laughed and cried. It is the first book I have heard by this author and am now going to look for more of her work.

Loved this book
