Ocean Beach

De: Wendy Wax

Narrado por: Amy Rubinate

Unlikely friends Madeline, Avery, and Nicole have hit some speed bumps in their lives, but when they arrive in Miami's South Beach neighborhood, they are all hoping for a do-over. Literally. They've been hired to bring a once-grand historic house back to its former glory on a new television show called Do-Over. If they can just get this show off the ground, Nikki would get back on her feet financially, Avery could restart her ruined career, and Maddie would have a shot at keeping her family together.

At least, that's the plan - until the women realize that while having their work broadcast is one thing, having their personal lives play out on TV is another thing entirely. Soon they are struggling to hold themselves, and the project, together. With a decades-old mystery - and the hurricane season - looming, the women are forced to figure out just how they'll weather life's storms.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Just the right amount of suspense and drama for a beach [listen]." ( Publishers Weekly)

Characters you could relate to.

Enjoyed the story and the individual stories within. Leaves you wanting to know what happens next. Just sort of draws you in.

Love it!

Loved it can’t wait to listen to the next one! Not sure why anyone would not like it!

In the end, I liked these women and their story

The narrator was one of the things about this audible book that I found distracting. When she wasn't acting as a character, during the narrations, she sounded almost robotic, very much like Siri. When she was acting as the various characters, she was much more dynamic. It was a strange juxtaposition and oddly jarring. It was also be bit maddening that it took them so long to unravel the mystery. I knew immediately who the culprit was. Initially it was difficult to follow the story because there were so many characters and the story went into each of their point of views. For me, just okay...

A Great Book Loaded with Laughter!

Three women with diverse backgrounds attempt to renovate a old, historical mansion for a cable television show known as Do-Overs. It’s hot and hurricane season in Miami. But it’s hot in the lives of the show’s stars. A funny and enjoyable story!

Great Series

We are really enjoying the series, looking forward to the next book. Well worth it.
