À propos de cet audio

A swoon-worthy romance novel set in the picturesque small-town charm of Monhegan, Maine, where a former child star seeks a second chance at life and love, only to be swept off her feet by a grumpy, handsome sheriff, his adorable niece, and a past that just won’t stay buried.

Monhegan, Maine: a picturesque island located twelve miles from the mainland.

Population: sixty-eight. Well, sixty-nine if you count Elizabeth Sweet, Monhegan’s newest resident and retired child star.

When Elizabeth steps off the boat, she’s ready to be charmed by the island that holds the sweetest memories from her childhood. A place so remote that even the relentless media wouldn’t think to follow her here. Instead, she’s met with nothing but exasperation.

“Summer people.” The words are muttered like a curse, almost a growl. No one seems particularly thrilled about her arrival, least of all the grumpy sheriff, who acts as if her presence is a personal offense.

Stupidly handsome and never seen without his loyal golden retriever, Bing, Sheriff Fisher Jones communicates mostly in grunts. Unfortunately for him, Elizabeth isn’t going anywhere. They’re neighbors, after all, and his niece, Sutton, like every other eight-year-old in America, is utterly obsessed with her.

Summer on Monhegan isn’t anything like Elizabeth expected, and neither is Fisher. She hasn’t figured out why he’s so surly, just as she isn’t ready to share what she’s running from.

But as the days pass, Elizabeth finds the islanders burrowing deeper into her heart. And Fisher may not be far behind. Still, it might all be for nothing if her past finally catches up with her. Because, in the end, she might be destined to be nothing more than one of the summer people.

This was a pretty mediocre read, and yet despite the predictable plot, I hung on and finished the whole thing. There was a small mystery that i wanted resolved. I usually really like the lead female narrator, but some of her repetitive speech “tics” were a bit distracting; she frequently ends sentences with a questioning high pitch. I guess overall it was enjoyable enough, some elements were better than others. If you’re looking for a breezy, somewhat nonsensical escape read, and can overlook some cringey dialogue, then this may be for you.

It was ok but somewhat of an eye roller

This was such a fun read and the read to finish summer with! I loved the appearances from some matchmaking faves and the chemistry between Libby and Fisher felt so natural. I also really enjoyed the duet narration of the audiobook. The addition of the supporting cast made for a well-rounded experience.

I hope there are others in the series! I can’t wait to see what happens with Wilder and Maggie.

Great listen from two of my favourite authors!
