Story
Young and desperately in love, Merrin had the whole world ahead of her. But just as her new life was about to start, the ground beneath her feet was cruelly swept away. Devastated by the humiliation, she ran far away from the beloved fishing village she had always called home to lick her wounds and escape her gossiping friends and neighbors. It hasn’t been easy, but six years later Merrin has forged a new life for herself far from the sea, burying the impulsive girl she once was.

Publisher's summary
From bestselling author Amanda Prowse comes the poignant tale of a woman who has always been there for her family. But will they be there for her?
Rae-Valentine and Howard were childhood sweethearts. They’ve shared twenty-five peaceful years since they were brought together by Dolly, Howard’s larger-than-life sister. But now, on the night of their wedding anniversary, Howard reveals a shocking betrayal that leaves Rae reeling.
Heartbroken, she takes Dolly on her would-be anniversary trip to Antigua and the two women drink and dance and talk like they haven’t in years. But in the break from real life, Rae realizes her choices have always been made for her, and suddenly she’s questioning not only her fragile marriage but also her one-sided friendships. Is she really the pushover everyone else sees?
When Howard comes looking for reconciliation, Rae has a choice to make: keep the peace, as she always has, or put herself first for once and find out who she really is.

Deep Insight -Great Listen
I was entranced from the first words and hated to put the book down. It is very insightful, told from a woman's point of view. It begins with the early stages of the relationships and shows how they evolve over the years.
Most of the book is centered around her husband's one transgression - his attempts to make amends and her inability to forgive and forget. Towards the end the story inevitably slips into Lifetime movie territory (not that there's anything wrong with that). Loose ends wind themselves up as the story approaches the end. Will Ray Valentine's recently revived hopes and dreams from her youth pull her out of the corner or will she realize the corner is where she really wants to be?
The author did a great job on narration - I would have thought she was a professional reader. She has a lovely voice and a British accent.

The narration is solid, the writing isn’t bad but the storyline just made me want to rip my ears off. Sniveling, poor me, my life has meant nothing (in the face of having everything) and on and on and on. About a quarter through I DELETED IT, my ears are so grateful! Save your credit.

Lackluster Meditations on Suburban Life
While I didn't think this book was as bad as others, it was not insightful or unique. What I appreciated about the story was that it did seem realistic -- but unless you are a white, upper middle class white lady, you might have a hard time relating. This is a book about a woman somewhere between her middle-class, stay-at-home mom status and going to Eat, Pray, Love. I think it does an excellent job of going over the thoughts of what a person who has just found out something life-changing would be struggling with, and going back and forth in her mind and her actions in what she wants to do. In fact, I think anyone who's made life altering decisions has probably gone through some version of this -- really struggling with what to do next and how their decisions will affect others. It just most likely wasn't on a beach in Antigua and probably had more considerations for one's financial situation.
As a shy person myself, I did enjoy how the interior thoughts of the main character were portrayed and also appreciated that she could struggle to voice herself without going from meek to yelling at everyone. While I could appreciate this realism, it also is not particularly interesting. Let's face it -- the interior struggles of most of us are only interesting to ourselves...even our best friends don't want to hear EVERY thought in your head. There were many parts where I got frustrated with this constant rambling around. I struggled to hang on to the end and after finishing it I can definitely say I would never recommend it to anyone I know. It's not terrible but it just falls flat.
Narration: The author did an excellent job of narration with a few exceptions. There was a lot of interior narration and that made it hard to follow switching back and forth in conversations. I couldn't tell if something was voiced out loud or not. The author tried to distinguish this but she wasn't always successful and I had to pay attention to determine what was going on. The author also does not do accents. I have a hard time thinking that a Portuguese man in Antigua would have a very proper English accent. In fact, everyone had the same English accent. This wasn't a deal breaker since she was otherwise able to distinguish between characters, but after listening to so many excellent audio books, I have higher expectations.

Cliche
I really wanted to like this book because the narrating is excellent. The author does as good a job as any professional reader. But the story line is so cliche and predictable, I was bored from page 1. While Rae is facing a terrible crisis in her life, she is superficial and not very believable. I could not get past the first few chapters even though some of the reviews promise a intriguing twist at the end of the story.

Much Aso About Nothing
Much Ado About Nothing should have been the title of this story. i kept waiting for something to be revealed that would be a deeper meaning, but it's just a story about a woman who takes a back seat to everyone else's needs who then finally breaks out on her own.

Brilliant book!!
Great read! Had me hooked from the beginning. The way Rae felt when her husband made the confession and the way she acted were totally believable. Her friend /sister-in-law Dolly was so funny - even though she was a little selfish. I loved the shock ending with the little twist to the tail, I wasn't expecting that.
I'll read some more of this author's books.
Recommended!!!

Really enjoyed this story, it would be a great summer read for all Mum's in their 30's and 40's. I really hope there is another book in the series so we can find out about Rae's adventures.

Not Bad: Like All Her Books
Another Amanda Prowse book with no real surprises, moderately engaging characters, and a bit of plot in one area (the end of the book, basically).
I listened to it whilst doing bits and bobs around the house or trying to go to sleep, and it was fine for those activities, as all of her books are. She's a prolific author and she reads well, which explains her fanbase, and she does actually give me hope that I might be published one day, which is nice. I digress:
This was a 3 star book with a 4 star ending, so I've given it 4 stars. I was fairly indifferent to the characters and their stories, and the author/narrator could work on doing different voices for each character, but this book was perfectly fine, with a handful of genuinely interesting moments.

Chick lit at its predictable worst.
Chick lit at its predictable worst.
One dimensional characters play out in a tired and drawn out well worn plot.

Story
On a leafy suburban street in Dublin, beautiful, poised Stella Greene lives with her successful husband, Matt. They're the perfect couple in every way, and Stella appears to have it all. Next door, at number 72, however, lives Rea Brady. Gruff, bad tempered and rarely seen besides the twitching of her net curtains, rumour has it she's lost it all...including her marbles, if you believe the neighbourhood gossip. But appearances can be deceiving, and when Stella and Rea's worlds collide they realise they have much in common.

Story
Beth Reynolds loved growing up close to Eleanor's Emporium – a bric-a-brac shop full of wonders on Lavender Bay. Devastated to learn that Eleanor has died, she returns home from London immediately and is shocked to discover that the elderly lady has left the shop to her! Vowing to restore it to its former glory, she only intends to stay until the end of the season. Although the longer she spends in the colourful seaside town, the more she falls back in love with everything she left behind... and quite possibly, with her best friend Eliza's older brother, local chef Sam Barnes!
