A Walk Along the Beach

A Novel

De: Debbie Macomber

Narrado por: Sandy Rustin, Roger Wayne Jr.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Two sisters must learn from each other’s strengths and trust in the redeeming power of love in a touching new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber.

The Lakey sisters are perfect opposites. After their mother died and their father was lost in grief, Willa had no choice but to raise her sister, Harper, and their brother, Lucas. Then, as an adult, she put her own life on hold to nurse Harper through a terrifying illness. Now that Harper is better and the sisters are living as roommates, Willa has realized her dream of running her own bakery and coffee shop, bringing her special brand of caretaking to the whole Oceanside community.

Harper, on the other hand, is always on the go. Overcoming a terrible illness has given her a new lease on life, and she does not intend to waste it. When Harper announces her plan to summit Mount Rainier, Willa fears she may be pushing herself too far. Harper, for her part, urges Willa to stop worrying and do something outside of her comfort zone—like taking a chance on love with a handsome new customer.

Sean O’Malley is as charming as he is intriguing—a freelance photographer whose assignments take him to the ends of the earth. Soon Willa’s falling for him in a way that is both exciting and terrifying. But life has taught Willa to hedge her bets, and she wonders whether the potential heartache is worth the risk.

Life has more challenges in store for them all. But both sisters will discover that even in the darkest moments, family is everything.

Praise for A Walk Along the Beach

“You can always trust Macomber . . . to tug at your heart strings and keep you turning pages.”—AARP

“Macomber scores another home run with this surprisingly heavy but uplifting contemporary romance between a café owner and a photographer. Eloquent prose . . . along with [a] charming supporting cast adds a welcome dose of light and hope. With this stirring romance, Macomber demonstrates her mastery of the genre.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Highly emotional . . . a hard-to-put-down page-turner, yet, throughout all the heartache, the strength and love of family shines through.”—New York Journal of Books

Beautiful love story

Enjoyed the narration having both a male and female voice.
Beautiful story of the bonds of love.

awesome made me cry.

Hated to get to the end. wanted more of the love story. Sean and Willa star crossed lovers finally found each other.

Love And Forgiveness

This book has a sweet and heartbreaking storyline with very likable characters. Willa and Sean both learn a lot about love and what is most important. Great narration.

Different from Most Debbie Macumber Books

Overall, this is a good book, but this book brought up a lot of emotions and sadness for me.
I lost my husband to cancer after a long battle and several reoccurrences.
She does a great job loss and finding your way after.

Excellent book

Loved the two voices telling the story. and it being from Sean ans Willow's perspectives.

the use of 2 voices

I love most all of Debbie macomber books, this one pulls hard on the heart strings. if i had to say one thing that I didn't care for it was not so much a dislike but didn't care for when the man doing Sean voice had to do Willa's voice, it kinda threw me off, if you're going to use a male and a female for the read let them read their parts but other then that LOVED THE STORY!!

sad story with happy ending

it had much sadness a happy ending for the most part but I think the illness could hit too close to home for a lot of people

Tender Story

I loved the characters in this story. Cried, laughed all in an hour of reading
