Breakwater Bay

By: Shelley Noble

Narrated by: Kirsten Potter

Preservationist Meri Hollis loves her latest project, restoring one of Newport's forgotten Gilded Age mansions. And with summer approaching, she'll be able to spend more time with her Gran on the Rhode Island shore. She has a great job, a loving family and she's pretty sure her boyfriend is going to propose on her thirtieth birthday. But everything Meri believes about family, happiness, truth, and love is shattered when her family's darkest secret is exposed.

Thirty years before, Meri's neighbor and friend, Alden Corrigan, took his father's dinghy out to fish. In a sudden storm, he rushed to help a woman stranded on the breakwater. She was just a girl... a very pregnant girl who disappeared soon after they reached safety - but not before she left behind a very special gift. Now that the truth it out, life will change for everyone in Breakwater Bay, and Meri and Alden will have to make decisions that could insure their future together - or separate them for good.

the storyline was great and original.
the characters were well represented
love the authors way of writing

Good multilayered story

Overall this book is a good listen, but a bit slow as the author repeats information about the main characters history making the story longer than it needs to be. I had to fast forward a few times. But overall, worth the listen, Especially if you are an Audible Escapes Member.

Awesome!

Great story, happy ending. Loved it! Wish there was a sequel! I’d like to know Jennifer got it up her ass!!!
