Swept Away

De: Beth O'Leary

Narrado por: Connor Swindells, Rebekah Hinds

Two strangers find themselves stranded at sea together in this epic new love story by bestselling author Beth O’Leary.

What if you were lost at sea…with your one-night stand?

Zeke and Lexi thought it would just be a night of fun. They had no intentions of seeing each other again. Zeke is only in town for the weekend to buy back his late father’s houseboat. Lexi has no time for dating when she needs to help take care of her best friend's daughter.

Going back home with a stranger seems like a perfect escape from their problems. But a miscommunication in the dark, foggy night means no one tied the houseboat to the dock. The next morning, Zeke and Lexi realize all they can see is miles and miles of water.

With just a few provisions on the idle boat, Zeke and Lexi must figure out how to get back home. But aside from their survival, they’re facing another challenge. Because when you’re stuck together for days on end, it gives you a lot of time to get to know someone—and to fall in love with them.

Sooooo Good

This was a lot deeper than I expected! Be prepared for trauma. It’s beautiful story. I’m really going to miss these characters. Awesome narration.

Boring

I usually love this author and her fun stories but this was just a challenge to get through and I couldn’t stand the narrators.

Beth O’Leary does it again!!

It’s adventure, it’s self-growth and acceptance, it’s forgiveness and so much love. This story is redemptive in so many ways and I loved it!!

Beth O’Leary nails it again!

I sometimes worry with my favorite authors that they won’t be able to keep up the magic of their previous books, but I am so happy to report that this one did not disappoint. So full of humor and heart and depth, with some unexpected twists to keep things interesting. Loved this story.

Soothing and lovely

I truly enjoyed this book start to finish. I’m unclear on the meh reviews. I loved the narrators, I loved the story of love between Zeke and Lexi. Even the ending was great. I wasn’t left wanting. Beth O’Leary always delivers poignant stories with twists that clearly show her writing skills and love of her characters.
