Return to Sullivans Island

De: Dorothea Benton Frank

Narrado por: Robin Miles

Dorothea Benton Frank returns to the enchanted landscape of South Carolina's Lowcountry made famous in her beloved New York Times best-seller Sullivans Island to tell the story of the next generation of Hamiltons and Hayes.

Newly graduated from college, aspiring writer Beth Hayes is elected by her family to house-sit the Island Gamble. Buoyed by sentimental memories of growing up on this tiny sandbar seemingly untouched by time, Beth vows to give herself over to the Lowcountry force and discover the wisdom it holds. Just as she vows she will never give into the delusional world of white picket fences, minivans, and eternal love, she meets Max Mitchell. All her convictions and plans begin to unravel with lightning speed. There is so much about life and her family's past that she does not know. Her ignorance and naiveté nearly cost her both her inheritance and her family's respect, but Beth finds unexpected friends to help her through the disaster she faces.

If everything happens for a reason, then Beth's return to Sullivans Island teaches her that betrayal and tragedy are most easily handled when you surround yourself with loyal family and friends in a magical place that loves you so much it wants to claim you as its own.

Who was the most memorable character of Return to Sullivans Island and why?

Lucy the neighbor was a hoot.

Completely enjoyable!

I am very embarrased to say that I almost passed this book by because of the previous reviews. I loved this audiobook, and I completely disagree with the previous reviews. The author's descriptions along with the wonderfully life-like characters make this a great book.

The narrator is very good, she captures the characters perfectly. Her voice is very enjoyable to listen to.

The families love for each other

Such a great book !! The writing was wonderful. The characters were perfect, the family love was so relatable and charming

once again Dorothea has transported me to the low country where I have sand in my shoes and I can feel & hear the ocean ..

outstanding story

Dorthea Benton Frank never disappoints. All of her books are this wonderful. I can't wait for the next one.

Loved it

I have enjoyed Ms. Frank's books from the very first one. This one had such a good story line and so many characters to keep up with but Robin Miles narrates like she is each person and furball. Thanks for taking me on a trip to the low country, once again.

I may be too critical but...

The narrator kinda made everyone sound like idiots. The story was ok, I loved the first book, Sullivan's Island. I have not heard it on audio after reading it, I don't want to. The author has a great affection for the south, and that I appreciate!
