Publisher's summary

Celia Langford lost her perfect life in the ultimate betrayal - not only was her late husband a cheat, he left her with a mountain of debt and no self-confidence. She poured her grief into cooking, determined to start new and heal by the sea. She meets Dax Smith, local dive shop owner and purebred South Florida native. The wrong city girl left a bad taste in his mouth, so he's stayed clear of all matters of the heart. His father is ill; her business is not going as planned. But their uncontrollable attraction toward one another makes anything seem possible.

Can't listen to this narrator!

Good grief! I couldn't make it through the first chapter listening to this narrator. She's probably the sweetest person but that's not a voice that I want to listen narrate a story to me. Please forgive me.

Sweet story - annoying narration

What made the experience of listening to Ambrosia by the Sea the most enjoyable?

I like the premise of the beach being a place to 'escape' to. It's worked for me! Also, turning the narration up to 1.5x so it was't as annoying.

What did you like best about this story?

I like how Celia was ready to pick up and start over in a new place, sight unseen, to recover from not only the loss of her husband to a tragic accident, but discovering his infidelity at the same time.

How did the narrator detract from the book?

I felt the narrator was reading in a way meant to be sexy and sultry, but at the same time sound like a disney princess. It was extremely annoying, and I almost gave up on the book.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
