Charlotte and Nicole were once the best of friends, spending summers together in Nicole's family's island house, but they have since grown apart. A successful travel writer, Charlotte lives on the road, while Nicole, a food blogger, lives in Philadelphia with her surgeon-husband, Julian.

July 29, 2013
Set on the fictional Maine island of Quinnipeague, Delinksy’s novel centers on two childhood friends, Charlotte and Nicole, who reunite to coauthor a cookbook about the local cuisine. (Warning: there are tantalizing food descriptions in this book. Don’t listen to it while hungry.) Narrator Marguerite Gavin’s voice is low and sensuous. This serves her well in narrating the story and in voicing Charlotte, the more worldly and assertive of the two friends. But it fails to adequately capture Nicole’s childlike nature. Early in the novel, Nicole’s voice is described as being close to that of a 10-year-old girl, but Gavin sometimes provides her with almost the same resonant, wry tone she gives Charlotte. Also, Gavin’s down east accent is on-again, off-again, with some local characters having no discernible accent, and others sounding almost like caricatures. However, Gavin’s rendition of Leo, the surly bad-boy neighbor up the road, is spot-on and quite entertaining. A St. Martin’s hardcover.

- content: Marguerite Gavin's sexy voice and tremendous acting talent combine in this rich book about friendship, love, and food to form a near "perfect pairing." Longtime estranged friends Charlotte and Nicole have been separated by secrets for 10 long years. When the opportunity to coauthor a cookbook of Maine island recipes brings them back together, the secrets can't be kept, and character and friendship are tested. Gavin uses tonal differences to differentiate between the various characters. Although her accents are somewhat uneven, they don't detract from an enjoyable listening experience. A.C.P.
