The Getaway

By: Isabelle Broom

Narrated by: Kirsty Dillon

Even when you're lost, love can find you....

Sometimes it takes losing everything to find the person you need....

Most people travel to Croatia for its endless sunshine, pebbly beaches and crystal clear sea.

Kate goes there to disappear.

She needs to escape from a life that has fallen apart in spectacular and public fashion, and no one on the beautiful island of Hvar knows who she is or what she's running away from.

Until she meets another lonely soul.

Alex is different to any man Kate has ever known, yet the connection between them is undeniable. She soon begins to open up in ways she never has before - not even to herself. But Kate is not the only person in Hvar hiding secrets. And, as she is about to discover, it is always only a matter of time before the truth catches up with you....

Enjoyed the book

I enjoyed the book but saw how it would end pretty early on. Although I was frustrated with Kate’s singular focus on getting back with her ex, I appreciated the character development. I also appreciated how the story help shed light on depression and mental health. I think it’s worth a credit and a listen.

Fun & Easy Read

I have never been to Croatia, but Isabelle certainly took me there in the Getaway. I could feel the warmth of the sun on my back, the sand between my toes & I absolutely wished I could view those sunsets! The perfect escape book.
