Coming Home

Chesapeake Diaries Series #1

By: Mariah Stewart

Narrated by: Xe Sands

In the wake of his wife's murder, agent Grady Shields turned his back on the FBI - and everything else-to retreat into the vast solitude of Montana, grieve for his lost love, and forget the world. But after years in seclusion, his sister's wedding draws him to St. Dennis, a peaceful town on the Chesapeake Bay. Though he swears he isn't interested in finding love again, Grady can't ignore the mutual sparks that fly when he meets Vanessa Keaton.

Although her past was marked by bad choices, Vanessa has found that coming to St. Dennis is the best decision she's ever made. Bling, her trendy boutique, is a success with tourists as well as with the townspeople. She's made friends, has a home she loves, and has established a life for herself far from the nightmare she left behind. The last thing she's looking for is romance, but the hot new man in town is hard to resist. And when Vanessa's past catches up with her, Grady finds that he's unwilling to let her become a victim again. As they fight her demons together, Grady and Vanessa discover that life still holds some surprises and that love doesn't always have to hurt.

OUTSTANDING!!!!

There are way too many things I loved to write here but I must say the characters in this ENTIRE series and their development is so incredibly well done!! Fantastic narration!!! Grace and Barry are just awesome ♥️ Thank you!!

Easy listen

Easy to listen too but too many stories happening at once. The witch Grace didn’t really fit.

great story teller.

loved it, makes you want more more more. she had mamy series. very enjoyable

Very interesting but, relaxing summer like story.

This story kept me interested but, was easy to listen to. Enjoyed it a lot.

Not sure about narrator

Idk about the narrator. That’s all I kept thinking about throughout the story. It was almost as if she was making everyone sound like they were still in bed with that someone and they were talking in a slow sexy voice. It was ALL the time. I like to hear normal voices when they r just standing around talking not that sultry seductive voice.
