Treading Water

Treading Water Series, Book 1

De: Marie Force

Narrado por: Holly Fielding

Love is the last thing on Jack Harrington's mind when he sets out to meet Andi Walsh's flight. Recently back to work after spending more than a year tending to his comatose wife, Jack is focused on getting through each day and caring for his three daughters. However, the moment he sets eyes on Andrea Walsh, the interior designer who has come to decorate the hotel his company is building in Newport, Rhode Island, Jack begins to wonder if Andi might be his second chance. After a disastrous marriage, Andi, single mom to a hearing-impaired son, isn't exactly looking for love, either, but that's what she finds with Jack.

The two embark on a long-distance relationship fraught with challenges as they balance the needs of their children and dueling careers while Jack continues to care for his wife, Clare. Just when Jack thinks his life is once again settled, he is confronted with a new challenge that tests him in ways he never could've imagined, leaving him to wonder if "happily ever after" is in the cards for him.

Love this story

I read this book years ago but recently upgraded to audio. I loved the voice of the narrator! This is a story of good people dealt difficult cards. At every turn, my heart ached for the hardships the family had endured. I sympathized with each of their choices even if I didn't agree with them. I can't wait to hear the next book in the series.

Touching story

Treading Water is a heartwarming story with a poignant tragic undercurrent and an unexpected twist to the HEA. I thoroughly enjoyed Holly Fielding's narration (unlike other reviewers who thought it was too monotone). I prefer readings that are not overly dramatic like a melodrama. Holly gave a wonderful performance.

Good story

Any additional comments?

I know I have heard this exact same story before, but Audible says it was just added. Does anyone know of the same exact plot from a different writer? I would definitely recommend this book if I didn't feel robbed.

Treading Water- Recorded Underwater?

The story line was expected and somewhat unbelievable. About par with the other stories in the romance genre. MY BIGGEST COMPLAINT was the quality of the recording. Many of the chapters had the same kind of hiss common in the old cassette days. Not worth the price for the quality of the recording alone.

Great Story - but boring naration

Would you listen to Treading Water again? Why?

No, the narrator was too monotone and boring.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Holly Fielding?

No - I wanted her to show some emotion or excitement.
