About this listen

***THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER***

Escape to the seaside this summer with the brand new novel from Heidi Swain, the Sunday Times bestselling author of feel-good women’s fiction. Think idyllic beaches, refreshing rock pools and breathtaking romance. The PERFECT summer read!

Following a shocking revelation within her family, Tess Tyler is looking to escape her hectic city life – and where better to hide than Wynmouth, the seaside town she visited as a child, with its sandy beaches, stunning rock pools and welcoming community. But little does she realise, Wynmouth isn't quite the haven she remembers it to be, and her real life is still threatening to catch up with her . . .

Also returning to Wynmouth is Joe. Having fled over a decade ago after an accident that changed his life forever, he’s back and is determined to face his demons. But, like Tess, Joe realises that the town is nothing like he remembers and quickly his arrival brings old tensions to the surface.

As the pair begin to familiarise themselves with the town they once knew, they each realise that the secrets they carry are becoming harder to conceal – but will revealing them bring the answers they’re looking for? Will Tess and her new friends finally get the second chance they’ve been hoping Wynmouth will give them?

Light hearted story. Bought it at first as I like listening to Karen Cass. Didn't disappoint at all. Lockdown reads !!

Good, feel good read. Excellent narration.

I felt the story was good but it was quite drawn out. The main character is a little frustrating but there is a good range of other characters which help carry the story. Happy with the narration.

Heart warming easy listen

This book was really up my alley. It was a really easy listen but with some twists and turns to not make it too predictable & cheesy.
I would definitely recommend it.

Really Enjoyed this Book

My first book by Heidi Swain. A delightful, relaxing read, just the thing one needs on a lazy day. One part of the plot a bit predictable, but it does not remove any pleasure. Some unexpected twists too. The narration generally ok.

Ideal holiday read
