Resumen del Editor

Jill and Carrie - both married with teenage children - meet one day during Jill's lunch break at a local park. Soon a friendship is forged. A friendship that deepens with each visit.

Jill's husband still lives and breathes the coach's life, a life that leaves him little time to spare for Jill. Left on her own more and more, Jill finds herself searching for the indefinable something that has been missing all her life.

Married to a successful businessman, Carrie Howell retired early from a career in real estate to spend more time with her teenage boys and to pursue her lone passion - painting. She, too, has felt for some time that something is missing from her world.

The Cottage is the story of two women pulled by a force stronger than their marriages, stronger than themselves. The story of Jill and Carrie. Two women. One love.

this one stings

only complaint is that i wish it were longer. i have a void left inside of me from this beautiful tragic love story.

very good, very sad

the story was wonderful and full of love. i hated rooting for infidelity, but they loved and deserved love, better than they knew.

Wonderfully written and performed

Ah, this well written story touched me so deeply, as I too have experienced the truity of these words. Well done and applause to both Ms. Hill and Ms. Craden. Well done indeed!

Omg

This book broke my whole heart in half. I love Gerri Hill! I love her writing. I also adore Abby Craden and her storytelling skills!

Sad but good

I've always enjoy Gerri Hill's book and this one is no different! Story is pretty short, it's a book you can listen in one setting, it's so short that I don't want it to end. It's a book I will go back to listen multiple time for sure.

It broke my heart and I can’t wait to listen to it again

Wow... What a beautifully written story. Gerri Hill quickly became a favorite with the Stars at Night, then several other books later I couldn’t wait for the release of the Cottage. Definitely not a “typical” love story but with well developed characters and Queen Abby Craden breathing life with her narration, it was so breathtakingly beautiful. The ending broke my heart but sometimes that’s what love does, and it was worth every minute.

Sweet and touching story

Very well written and emotional story about two straight women whose infatuation turns into a sweet romance and a wonderful love story with a dramatic ending. The characters Jill and Kerry were very well defined and both characters were written as married women which added to the drama of the storyline. The overall experience of this story was fantastic and kept this listeners undivided attention throughout the story. Highly recommended.

I loved this story!

You know from the beginning how the story ends, but it's the unfolding of the love story that's beautifully done.

Shockingly moving!

I don’t usually listen to audio books this short, but I love listening to Abby Craden narrate! I was surprised by the fact that the book started with the ending first, then went to the beginning of the story, but now that I have finished it, I’m kind of glad to have gotten that insight before the ending, but on the other hand, it invoked the emotions a lot quicker. I was bawling like a little baby at the end of this book. But I loved it. I wonder if there is going to be another continuation onto the story, I guess we will see.

Happy and Sad

love the story would read it again even though I cried at the end. write more
