Publisher's summary

Clara Duncan is adrift.

She's always been a loner, so she never suspected that her breakup with her first love would leave her this hopeless. Clara abandons her old life and moves to a quiet, coastal New England town, where she looks forward to days of aimless wandering, like a seagull on the wind. She's convinced herself that this is good enough, until she finds an antique porcelain urn washed up on the beach - a discovery that leads her to a beautiful historian who literally falls into her lap.

The warm and enthusiastic Ginny is everything Clara could hope for, but their budding relationship is fraught with doubts. Clara is afraid of repeating the mistakes that led to her last breakup, afraid of losing herself in passion. And as if things weren't complicated enough, the mysterious, charismatic Autumn has her eye on Clara - and some disturbing words of warning where Ginny is concerned.

Can Clara and Ginny be together while still staying true to themselves? And why does Clara feel that unraveling the mystery behind the urn will answer the questions her own heart is asking?

WOW

I loved this book, the story line was surprising and interesting, the narration was excellent. I really cared for Clara and was eager to know the story about the urn.

A poem of a book

This is one of those books I should have read rather than listened to because its beauty is compromised by the reader.

Robotic Narrator

This is not your typical lesbian romance where the two women are fighting themselves to get the other into bed. This story is about two women who both find solace in their work and lives without needing the immediate company of others. Both introverts find that they at compatible without needing to change each other, well after a few miss steps and misunderstandings. The story has a nice mystery that the pair try to solve while stressing the importance of trust and open communication between partners.

The narration is nearly unbearable. The woman sounds like a robot most of the time and if I didn't like the story I would have given up on the book. Listen to the sample first and if there is an issue audible has a decent refund policy. I have read and listened to enough lesbian fiction to know this story will be a nice change of pace. Not everyone can be a smoking hot CEO of a company who falls for an equally hot heiress.

Yikes

I really wanted to like this book. I could not even make it through to the end. I would say the best way to describe it would be juvenile. I did enjoy the narrator but she could not save the storyline.

Beuller... Beuller...

No offense but was it the horrible monotone narration or did Clara have Autism? Is she developmentally delayed? Because that's how she came across. If so cool, might have made some things make more sense. If not then this book was Horrible! Man I'm pissed I wasted my money on the audible version when I could have skipped thru the book for free with my Kindle Unlimited subscription.

Heart Breaking Boredom

The narration is so flat. Free from any emotion. The story never gets to any higher point. almost like long list of facts that add together. Such a disappointment. Took me ages to get to the finish line. I gave it 2 stars and not one because unfortunately I heard few worse. I need to hear something by Georgia Beers to get over this awful feeling and get inspired again.
