Wrested back to Cabarita Beach by her grandmother's sudden death, Kate Summer discovers a mystery buried in the past that changes everything.

Kate returns home to the sleepy hamlet of Cabarita Beach and the run-down Waratah Inn for her grandmother's funeral. She spent many happy childhood years at the inn, but all she wants to do now is sell the dilapidated boutique inn and head back to the city and her busy, professional life. But she and her two estranged sisters discover they've inherited the inn together. To sell, they need all three sisters to agree to the sale.

Soon, her carefully constructed life begins to unravel and Kate decides to stay in Cabarita Beach to renovate the elegant, old building. Despite her misgivings about reviving the crumbling structure, she quickly becomes consumed with crown moulding, history and an attractive horse wrangler she can't seem to ignore.

When she discovers a clue to a mystery from the past in her grandmother's things, she'll be drawn down a path that raises more questions than answers. Piece by piece she and her sisters will uncover the secret former life of their beloved grandmother. A life of love, intrigue, and loss. A life they never knew she had.

An opportunity to sell the Inn pushes them to make a choice: commit to the Waratah Inn and family, or walk away from the Inn and each other, back to their separate and isolated lives.

For fans of Debbie Macomber, Carolyn Brown, Danielle Steele, Grace Greene, and Pamela Kelley.

This is my first book by this author. I overall liked it, but felt that in some places it was overly descriptive and it didn’t need to be and it lengthened the book quite a bit. I didn’t know it was a series either, so be prepared to need to read the other books to find out what happens.

This is the first book in The Waratah Inn Series, a women's fiction. Three estranged sisters, Kate, Reeda and Bindi, are called back to their hometown when their grandmother died. This first book is centered around Kate's story. This is a beautifully written story. I loved it! The back and forth, from her Grandmother's past, and Kate's present, is well done and fascinating. The storyline is original, and filled with secrets, and intrigue. The scenery is wonderful. Looking forward to listen to the next book in the Series, One Summer in Italy, Reeda's story. I can't wait to know what will happen next. Brigid Lohrey did a geat job with the narration. She has a beautiful voice.

Beautiful Story!

Having lost my father two weeks ago and experiencing the bonding that can take place between sisters as they process their grief together, this audiobook truly spoke to me.

The three Summer sisters are brought back together in this story by the sudden death of their grandmother--the woman who raised them after their parents died. As they share memories and discover secrets, they uncover more mysteries about their family's past than answers. Yet, they pull together to sort through it all.

And they used that time to take their grandparent's legacy and make it their own, something that none of them could have done without the others.

Life is certainly made sweeter by those we share it with; not just spouses or lovers, but siblings and friends as well. And this book definitely celebrates all that life has to offer, both in terms of heartache and love.

I'm looking forward to reading more books in this series!

The Waratah Inn is a fabulous book with an intriguing storyline. I enjoyed the flashbacks to grandmother’s story as the girls learned more about their family. The descriptions of the characters and settings are vivid and easy to picture. The characters are interesting and realistic and the story is well performed by the narrator. Looking forward to more from this author!

Fabulous

I really enjoyed this warm-hearted story. I liked the characters and setting. The way the book goes back and forth in time between the present and World War II era adds more layers. The narrator had a very pleasant voice. I would certainly like to hear more books read by this narrator and read or listen to more books by this author.

Kate and her two sisters come home to the Waratah Inn. Not the happiest of circumstances, the death of their grandmother gives the women the much needed bonding time that they have missed. Now there are questions regarding the Inn and it's future. Will the sisters keep it? This book features Kate, and she has come from the rat race, finding that she is enjoying the slower pace this life would give her. Caught up in relationships she needs to make decisions that will make her happy. Kate also finds secrets about her family that without being at the Inn would never have come forth. It's a fun, family filled adventure and while ending on a cliffhanger, Kate's story was very warm and satisfying. I can't wait to see what is going to happen next!

Brigid Lohrey gives a good narrative to the story. Her accent gives us the authentic feel of the area and her voices for the characters are enjoyable. Her pacing is a little slow, but the story flows and it's very entertaining.

Love this story!

I loved the story, but I hated the way it ended so abruptly without resolution.

I enjoyed this Aussie tale very much and looked forward to each episode in the three sisters’ lives. However, the abrupt ending was a big disappointment. I don’t know if a sequel has been planned or written. Regardless, I think a more creative ending was needed.
