About this listen
She took two more steps and paused - squeezed her eyes tightly shut - and Ember gasped as she looked forward up the shore to see a man struggling in the water. He was coughing - spitting water from his mouth as he crawled from the water and onto the sand. As he collapsed face-down on the shore, Ember lifted her skirt and ran toward the man, dropping to her knees beside him.
"Sir?" she cried, nudging one broad shoulder. The man was stripped of his shirt - dressed only in a pair of trousers - no shoes...
Ember shook her head, rolling her eyes at her own foolishness.
"Sir?" she called again, nudging his broad shoulder once more. The man lay on his stomach - his face turned away from her. "Are you dead, sir?" she asked. Placing a hand to his back, she sighed with relief as she felt he yet breathed.
"Sir?" she said, clambering over the man's broad torso.
The man coughed. His eyes opened - his deep blue eyes, so shaded by thick, wet lashes that Ember wondered how it was he could see beyond them.
"Sir?" Ember ventured.
He coughed, asking, "Where am I?"
"On the seashore, sir," Ember answered.

Story
Secretly, however, if Jilly ever allowed herself to be completely honest about it (which she tried to avoid), there was one other man in Mourning Dove who always crossed her mind when the subject of the handsomest man in town arose. Yet there was no lingering on thinking of that man - no sirree! Not for a moment! And so Jilly just kept telling Jack that he was the handsomest man in Mourning Dove Creek. Besides, it was almost true - being that the other man lived outside of town and not right in town the way Jack did.

In the eyes of London Society, Gillian Phelps is suitable enough. Though the ton whispers about her change of residence, any speculation remains just that: ballroom gossip.

Gillian has become adept at hiding the reality of her circumstances, but the close quarters of a house party will test her ability to conceal the crushing truth. And with so many people to deceive, the late arrival of another guest is a most unwelcome surprise.

Great Book
If you like sappy love stories you will love this book. Marcia read it herself and she did a great job dramatizing it. She is an up and coming narrator so there is obviously things she can work on, but she has done better than some career narrators I have listened to. All in all I loved it (don't tell my wife, I will never here the end of if since AJ is Marcia's biggest fan).

Wonderful
At first I was a little skeptical about an author narrating her own book, however, she did great! I love Marcia Lynn Mcclure's books and I do own all of them. I was so excited for an audible book that I bought it right away, and then listened to is all day long.
Imagine a handsome man washed up shore and a beautiful girl finding him and nursing him back to health. She has been hurt before and does not know what to make of her feelings toward this man of short acquaintance and he fees the same. They must overcome their inner turmoil and only then will their hearts be free to give to each other.

Great Story, Terrible Narration
I know the author narrated her own story but it was painful to listen too. It was like she was reading a script. I liked the story and would read this again in book format but I would not listen.
