About this listen

Dive into "Sailing into the Heart," book one in the EMMA Award-Winning St. James Sisters series by Amazon and Barnes & Noble bestseller, Tana Jenkins.

Sydney St. James retreated from the shadows of her past, finding solace and safety on idyllic Mackinac Island. Untouched by the roar of cars— the island is the haven she sought after the waves of tragic loss swept away her closest family. Here, she's free to be the quirky teacher with a penchant for hallway dances and math class melodies. She's also the guardian of a found family, her students and adopted animals, living a stitched-together-life far from the bustle and noise that echo her fears.

However, her precious tranquility is tested by the unexpected return of big city financier Devin Fox, her childhood love. Brash and unsentimental, he believes fast cars and faster living will get him wherever he needs. And his plans for the island threaten everything Sydney holds dear.

As lines are drawn in the sand, Sydney faces a choice: retreat deeper or confront the storms she's spent years avoiding.

Set against Mackinac Island's breathtaking backdrop, Sailing into the Heart is not just a story of love reborn; it's an adventure of self-discovery, testament to the power of found family, and a reminder that sometimes, the most significant journeys force us to navigate the roads we fear the most. If you like Hallmark-style beach romances, adorable animals, and opposites attract, you’ll love this story!

Too cute!

This was a cute, quick read! Very light but sweet. Would love to read more of their story!

I think it would’ve read better with a little more human feeling instead of having a computer generated voice read the story. Some of that emotion doesn’t translate well when read by the computer.
