Resumen del Editor

New York Times best-seller.

A seaside town helps one young woman reclaim the light after darkness in an uplifting novel from number-one New York Times best-selling author Debbie Macomber.

“Romantic, warm, and a breeze to read - one of Macomber’s best.” (Kirkus Reviews)

Annie Marlow has been through the worst. Rocked by tragedy, she heads to the one place that makes her happy: Oceanside in the Pacific Northwest, the destination of many family vacations when Annie was a teenager.

Once there, Annie begins to restore her broken spirit, thanks in part to the folks she meets: a local painter, Keaton, whose large frame is equal to his big heart - and who helps Annie fix up her rental cottage by the sea; Mellie, the reclusive, prickly landlord Annie is determined to befriend; and Britt, a teenager with a terrible secret. But it is Keaton to whom Annie feels most drawn. His quiet, peaceful nature offers her both comfort and reprieve from her grief, and the two begin to grow closer.

Then events threaten to undo the idyll Annie has come to enjoy. And when the opportunity of a lifetime lands in her lap, she is torn between the excitement of a new journey toward success and the safe and secure arms of the haven - and the man - she's come to call home.

In this heartwarming tale, Annie finds that the surest way to fix what is damaged within is to help others rise above their pain and find a way to heal.

Praise for Cottage by the Sea:

“Macomber never disappoints. Tears and laughter abound in this story of loss and healing that will wrap you up and pull you in; readers will finish it in one sitting.” (Library Journal, starred review)

“Macomber’s story of tragedy and triumph is emotionally engaging from the outset and ends with a satisfying conclusion. Readers will be most taken by the characters, particularly Annie, a heartwarming lead who bolsters the novel.” (Publishers Weekly)

Entertaining.

It was enjoyable. No horrific, exasperating, thriller stuff, just a lovely story to help me relax.

Solid 4 stars

This was a very enjoyable read. I liked how the author used a good vs sad plot to build the story around. At times you were blown away by the tragedy, and then in the next sequence the author gave you joy to out balance the sad. Very well written, with defined characters.

A somewhat decent lifetime movie

I enjoyed the characters and the story itself, but the writing was a bit juvenile and the story was predictable. Maybe that’s the point though, an easy predictable feel good story.
