Description
When a new teacher arrives in a tiny fishing village, she realizes the most important lessons are the ones she learns outside the classroom.
It’s 1985. Rachel O’Brien arrives in Little Cove seeking a fresh start after her father dies and her relationship ends. As a new teacher at the local Catholic high school, Rachel chafes against the small community, where everyone seems to know her business. The anonymous notes that keep appearing on her car, telling her to go home, don’t make her feel welcome either.
Still, Rachel is quickly drawn into the island’s distinctive music and culture, as well as the lives of her students and fellow teacher Doug Bishop. As Rachel begins to bond with her students, her feelings for Doug also begin to grow. Rachel tries to ignore her emotions because Doug is in a long-distance relationship with his high school sweetheart. Or is he?
Eventually, Rachel’s beliefs clash with church and community, and she makes a decision that throws her career into jeopardy. In trying to help a student, has she gone too far? Only the intervention of the "Holy Dusters", local women who hook rugs and clean the church, can salvage Rachel’s job as well as her chance at a future with Doug.

Lovely introduction to Newfoundland
The interesting development of a new teacher in a foreign environment was done with humour and heartbreak. The characters were varied and the protagonist was able to develop friendships in unusual places.

Liked the story but NL may have been overdone
This is the story of a new teacher from Toronto coming to a work in a small school in rural Newfoundland as a French teacher. She carries baggage with her that adds to the drama. I liked the story but in audio format the language wasn't represented well. I understand there are standards but the full effect of the language was choppy when you know what the language was meant to be. I do understand the shock value of a "mainlander" coming in and hearing this for the first time so that was quite funny and well done. Maybe if I had to read it instead of listen on audio I'd have a better appreciation of the story. However that's because I'm from NL. The premise of the story sits around language, kindness, teenage complexities, and falling in love.
