About this listen

She’s 43 years old…

…and starting over from scratch.

How did this happen? She had it all together. A stable marriage of two decades. Two grown daughters. And now she and her husband, empty nesters, were moving to a beach house. Until he showed up late one night and tore their marriage apart. A secret life. A different woman. Another family. Left alone, she has to begin again. And then her estranged sister and mother get thrown into the mix. When she buys a house on a small South Carolina island, will she learn what life is really about? Or will she find out that some relationships can never be mended?

Overall, The Story Seemed To Resonate With Some Readers Despite Its Flaws In Writing And Character Development.

The jerk of an ex husband.

Very enjoyable I highly recommend it for a summer beach read. Seriously. Buy it. Worth your time.

Quirky and Corny

I did the Audible version of this book and the narrator was bad. Her voice was like nails on a chalkboard to me. The storyline was quick and didn’t give you a lot of time to get to know the characters. I finished the book because it was short and I paid for it but I wouldn’t read again.

Motivational

I liked how she moved on to do what she wanted and find herself. Then in the end stuck to it as well.

Sweet & Sour

Seemed like a real life story of how a narcissist and controlling person can effects others. The ending presented a hope for the wounded.
However, the short book was not worth an audible credit.

Terrible Narrator!!!!

It may be a good story but I can’t even finish it due to horrible narrator. She makes a 43 year old woman sound like a 70 year old and most other voices are done in baby voice. I can’t take it.

A very enjoyable quick read

I read this in two sittings.
First because I was captured by the story and second because I lost all track of time enjoying the read so much. And I love Shrimp and grits!

Book may be great but narrator is terrible!

I wanted to like this book but I can’t listen to it so wasted a credit on it of my subscription. Will read the book on my own but like to have some to listen to while working and this one I had to turn off.
