Description
The next original trade women's fiction novel from beloved bestselling author Robyn Carr. Carr is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Virgin River and Thunder Point series. Her trade women's fiction novel Four Friends debuted at #5 on the New York Times. Her hardcover debut, What We Find was #10 on the ebook list and #14 on the combined list. Her most recent trade original, The Life She Wants, debuted at #15 on the print list, #10 on the ebook list and #13 on the combined list. A television talk show host returns to her childhood summer home to rebuild her life after she's fired for falling ratings. The return is bittersweet as the house has been neglected for years. She's flooded with memories of the wonderful summers she spent with her sisters and cousins before a tragic event changed everything. Working to uncover what really happened the last summer they were all together, she reaches out to her family and the women all gather for an uneasy family reunion. As they share their stories they realize their recollections of their summer childhoods are vastly different and no one's lives are what they'd dreamed of when they were children. But being together again helps them all to heal from the scars of the past.

      • content: Narrator Therese Plummer provides just the right touch in portraying the Hempstead sisters and cousins who spent summers at a lake in Minnesota until tragedy struck. Years later they're brought back together by Meg, who is suffering from cancer and wants to spend one last summer at the lake. Each of the women has her own baggage. The sisters and cousins have strong, distinct personalities, and Plummer subtly portrays them all. She also does an excellent job with the Minnesota accent that some of the characters have. Plummer has the listener running the gamut from laughter to tears as she brings the story to life. S.B. © AudioFile 2017, Portland, Maine
