About this listen

Jill and Carrie - both married with teenage children - meet one day during Jill's lunch break at a local park. Soon a friendship is forged. A friendship that deepens with each visit.

Jill's husband still lives and breathes the coach's life, a life that leaves him little time to spare for Jill. Left on her own more and more, Jill finds herself searching for the indefinable something that has been missing all her life.

Married to a successful businessman, Carrie Howell retired early from a career in real estate to spend more time with her teenage boys and to pursue her lone passion - painting. She, too, has felt for some time that something is missing from her world.

The Cottage is the story of two women pulled by a force stronger than their marriages, stronger than themselves. The story of Jill and Carrie. Two women. One love.

No happy ever after ending. I got to 1/2 way and read other reviews and realised it was not going to end well. So I stopped after the couple got together. In my universe they ended up happy ever after and if I don't listen to the rest of the story then it is true for me. Beautifully read by Abby Craden (as per) and a lovely story - bar the sad ending.

Sad ending - could not finish

but beautiful story of two unhappy women who share one glorious summer, and find real love. even in the sadness (many tears) you never know when love will find you, make the most of your time together, it can be fleeting.

connection to the characters is strong from the beginning, its draws you in,and although it's clear what's going to happen, your still wanting it to be a different outcome. A heartfelt story, one that I won't forget.

I've never cried so much listening to a story before.
