About this listen

Four decades. Four seasons. Four chance encounters with the same man.

Spring 1986, Oxford. Rachel has landed on her feet: engaged to handsome author Jonny, soon to be stepmother to his young daughter Teddy, and with a dream to open her own art gallery. It’s everything she wished for during her unsettled childhood. So when she meets candid and carefree American artist Gabe at a party and feels a familiar spark, she knows she needs to resist.

But as her perfect life moves forward, Gabe is never far away, and there’s no denying the lure of the spontaneous, wildly adventurous existence he seems to offer. His is a world of endless possibilities—ones Rachel can’t let herself be tempted by if she’s ever to stay the safe course with Jonny. But how can she focus on the life she thought she wanted when she can’t help imagining the alternative?

One thing’s for certain: Gabe is more than a minor character in Rachel’s life. And as their paths intersect over seasons and decades, each meeting presents Rachel with a choice that could alter everything, and she has to wonder whether the life story she once fought for is the version she’s meant to be living…

Critic reviews

“Narrator Katherine Littrell perfectly delivers a mix of emotions in this hopeful love story. It's spring of 1986, and Rachel has found happiness in her Oxford hometown after a tumultuous adolescence…. Then she meets Gabe, a visiting American artist, and the chemistry is undeniable.… Littrell speaks with a trill as a bragging neighbor shares news. Strategic emphases reveal Rachel's deep disappointment when she cannot show it outwardly.” AudioFile Magazine

Meh

Syrupy and predicable with terrible American accents. Not my cup of tea. No pun intended

Absolutely beautiful love story.

This story was so well written. Kept my interest the entire way through. Waiting and anticipating is the best part.

Sweet story-made better by the voice talents of Katherine Littrell

An endearing story of love, sacrifice and heart break. Katherine Littrell’s performance delightfully embodies the characters with their varied personalities and accents (multiple UK, American and a few others) bringing the story to life. Her seamless ability to shift between characters and give each a unique voice made this a truly enjoyable listening experience.

Depressing Predictable Story

Great voices, Ending was nice. Why so many books have affairs between partners I don't understand. It's not for me how sad. Life is challenging enough. I want to read books that are filled with kindness and are joyfully uplifting.
