About this listen

Testing the waters is one thing, but Teresa Reynolds is in serious danger of going overboard.

Feeling down on herself after a breakup with her ultra-critical boyfriend, Teresa arrives in Crescent Cove, Oregon, for a weekend getaway. The trouble is, her ex-boyfriend's claims that she's uninteresting and unworthy of love have left her wishing she could be someone else. Then a chance encounter with a cute guy on the beach gives her the opportunity to reinvent herself.

Curt Mason is spending the summer avoiding women and getting over a broken heart. When he meets Térèse from Paris on the beach in Crescent Cove, his vow quickly goes out with the tide. Who is this mysterious woman, and why is he suddenly wracking his brain to remember every bit of French he learned back in high school just to try to impress her?

Being Térèse seems to bring out the best in Teresa, until her little game turns into a French knot of deception. Does she dare let Curt meet the person God made her to be?

Crescent Cove. Where true love comes in waves.

Taking place over the course of a weekend, Teresa is trying to get away from the heartbreak of an abusive jerk (my words not hers), only to find she brought him, in mind, with her. Her obsessive thoughts about what he thought of her got on my nerves a bit. She seemed to embrace the inner conversation rather than turning away to something, anything else. When she gets a little attention she decides to make herself look more interesting.

I liked the story adventure and the budding relationship between Tony & Teresa. The support characters were strong and encouraging of each Tony & Teresa. The inclusion of God and prayer was real and appropriate.

Becky Doughty did a terrific job bringing the characters to life and narrating.

I recieved a free Audible copy, at my request, in exchange for a honest review.
