De: Julie L. Spencer

Narrado por: Chrissa Boice

Some accomplishments are easier than others....

For Olympic swimmer Gail Pederson, gold medals came easy. Finding true love and marrying him in the temple? Not so easy. Especially with three men competing for her attention and temptations leading her further and further from her goal.

Choices have consequences, and each choice Gail makes affects all four of them. One choice changes their lives forever and leaves unexpected consequences in its wake.

Innocence lost, promises broken, and friendships destroyed. Gail may choose how to live her life, but she can’t choose the consequences.

enjoyable clean romantic story

An enjoyable emotional young romance story. This engaging storyline had me interested page after page as the characters get caught up with their mistakes through a small amount of drama and alot of depth.  This sweet romantic story had well developed interesting characters. A truly good clean romance with vivid descriptions that was beautifully narrated and a great suprising twist for the ending. 

A Story of Redemption

I almost didn't finish listening to this. I remembered I had read it previously and I knew that there were some struggles coming up. Gail was very immature, but I can see how the story could be realistic, too. I am glad I finished it. it was an emotional story but still had a happy ending after the struggles.

Was surprised

Enjoyable but not predictable. Clean romance novel. Has some Latter Day Saint (Mormon) church teachings in it.

A surprising tale

This book surprised me. Gail has three people who think they love her and want to marry her. She makes some very poor choices. The surprising part is that Gail dies. Now we have three men who are mourning her loss along with her parents. I was a little shocked. I couldn’t understand what else was coming in the book. Of course I have given enough spoilers. You will have to read or listen to the book to figure it out.
There were some good themes such as learning to forgive yourself and learning to forgive others.
The narrator did a fabulous job.

The Cove is such a special story!

I may be a little biased, but I just love this story. Gail is a selfish, spoiled brat who destroys the lives of the three men who love her. You may need a few tissues along this journey.
