Story
Morag MacIntyre is a Scottish lass from the remote islands that make up the northernmost reaches of the UK. She’s also a third-generation pilot, the heir apparent to an island plane service she runs with her grandfather. The islands—over 500 dots of windswept land that reach almost to Norway—rely on their one hardworking prop plane to deliver mail, packages, tourists, medicine, and the occasional sheep. As the keeper of this vital lifeline, Morag is used to landing on pale golden beaches and tiny grass airstrips, whether during great storms or on bright endless summer nights.

Posy Fairweather is over the moon when her boyfriend Matt proposes in what is probably the most romantic way possible—on top of a mountain, in a thunderstorm, like something from a Nicholas Sparks novel. But a few days later he dumps her. Crushed and humiliated, Posy wonders why all her romances have always been such train wrecks. Determined to gain some insight, Posy resolves to get online, track down her exes, and ask them. Which doors from Posy’s past should stay closed? Which might open? Can she learn from past mistakes?

Laid off from her department store job, Carmen has perilously little cash and few options. The prospect of spending Christmas with her perfect sister Sofia, in Sofia’s perfect house with her perfect children and her perfectly ordered yuppie life, does not appeal. Frankly, Sofia doesn’t exactly want her prickly sister Carmen there, either. But Sofia has yet another baby on the way, a mother desperate to see her daughters get along, and a client who needs help revitalizing his shabby old bookshop. So Carmen moves in and takes the job.

Years ago, Flora fled the quiet Scottish island where she grew up - and she hasn't looked back. What would have done on Mure? It's a place where everyone has known her all her life, where no one will let her forget the past. In bright, bustling London, she can be anonymous, ambitious...and hopelessly in love with her boss. But when fate brings Flora back to the island, she's suddenly swept once more into life with her brothers - all strapping, loud, and seemingly incapable of basic housework - and her father.

Publisher's summary
The summer holiday brings new passion and new challenges in the enchanting third book of Jenny Colgan’s utterly delightful School by the Sea series, set at a girls’ boarding school in Cornwall.
School is out, following a bit of saucy scandal at Downey House...
Beloved high school teacher Maggie Adair had been comfortably, if somewhat ambivalently, engaged to her dependable long-distance boyfriend Stan. But in the heat of summer, Maggie’s attraction to her colleague David McDonald has caught fire. Now both are facing an uncertain future as they try to figure out how to stay committed to their careers—and each other.
Meanwhile, the girls of Downey House—mercurial Fliss, glamorous Alice, and shy, hard-working Simone—have had long summers at home, which weren’t quite the respite they had been hoping for. But the new school year is thankfully here, and it will bring new pupils and lots of fresh challenges for students and teachers alike at the school by the sea.

Meet Tom. Or Dr O’Grady, as he used to be called. When you pass him on the street, most people don’t even give him a second glance. You see, Tom isn’t living his best life. Burdened by grief, he’s only got his loyal dog, Bette Davis, for company and a rucksack containing his whole world. Then there’s Ruth and her son, DJ, who no longer have a place to call home. But Ruth believes that you can change the world by helping one person at a time - and Tom needs her help. There are a thousand ways to find your home - you just need to be brave enough to look for them.

Morag MacIntyre is a Scottish lass from the remote islands that make up the northernmost reaches of the UK. She’s also a third-generation pilot, the heir apparent to an island plane service she runs with her grandfather. The islands—over 500 dots of windswept land that reach almost to Norway—rely on their one hardworking prop plane to deliver mail, packages, tourists, medicine, and the occasional sheep. As the keeper of this vital lifeline, Morag is used to landing on pale golden beaches and tiny grass airstrips, whether during great storms or on bright endless summer nights.

Wanted to love it
I really enjoy Jenny’s Colgan’s books and have listened to many of them. This one missed the mark for me.
I did not enjoy the narrator and was disappointed that they changed narrators for the series. This was made worse by the fact that it seems like the narrator did not listen to the previous two books so the pronunciations and persona of the people was different than what was established before.
I stay engaged with the story but it seemed to drag on a little bit and miss the mark on the tension between Maggie and David. I enjoyed both of their stories but it left me wanting more throughout the book.
The cliffhanger ending was abrupt and left a bad taste in my mouth. I like this series and will listen to the next book, but hope it is better.

Jenny changed some details in the story, like daniel’s wife was Penny, now Susie. Then Maggie’s hair was dark and now it’s red. It’s like she forgot and didn’t care to research it.

Why Jenny why?!
I’m only on Chapter 7 but I’m really upset and disappointed. Jenny changed details in the book and it’s very clear either she or the editors cared so little, they didn’t change them back! Daniel’s wife is now Susie and Maggie’s hair is now red instead of black. Oh and Simone’s last name isn’t Kardashian any longer. This and book 4 in this series are my last two Jenny Colgan’s book; I’ve read all the rest. If this had been the first series I read, because of the obvious changes, I wouldn’t read anymore. Whether it’s Jenny or not who made the changes, it screams carelessness and indifference and, as a fan, I can no longer recommend her books. Someone needs to put a note out explaining this.

On the fence
This series is so frustrating. I have low tolerance for stories based on people not saying what they mean and then mooning over it. I’m actually more interested in Veronica and the kids more than Maggie and David! Then the author throws us that cliffhanger…. So, I have to know what that’s about, but don’t want to put up with more self-punishing brooding? Not sure.
