About this listen
From New York Times best-selling author Joanne DeMaio comes The Wait, Book 15 of The Seaside Saga.
In the New England beach town of Stony Point, everyone is waiting for something. Or someone. They're waiting for an answer. Waiting for something to believe in. Waiting for the right time. Waiting for a friend. Some are waiting to come home. Others are waiting to make a move. Then, there's that shabby coastal table at twilight, awaiting a secret dinner guest.

Story
After years of pursuing a denim design career, Maris Carrington never imagined trading her Chicago studio for a New England shingled cottage. But a forgotten home movie tucked inside a dusty attic box leads to an unexpected summer ... One of uncovering family secrets while settling her father's estate, one of inheriting a forlorn German shepherd, one of reconnecting with old friends on a weathered boardwalk, beneath starlit skies on a beach nestled in a crook of the Connecticut coast.

Story
Reluctant to leave her cherished New England hometown after her sister's winter wedding, former journalist Vera Sterling makes a sudden decision. She takes what's left of her severance pay and invests it in real estate ... in one particular drafty colonial home and old timber barn set upon the pretty banks of Addison Cove. In that rough-hewn barn, she discovers a secret treasure left behind by the previous owner, the proprietor of the long-forgotten Christmas Barn gift shop. While restoring her run-down, wood-sided home--its creaking floors, broken banister, and neglected widow's walk--that secret slowly unfolds like a bit of snowflake wonder, crystallizing hopes and dreams for many in this small Connecticut town.

Great Story
The continues Seaside Saga is great. I love how it just keeps going. My biggest complaint is the narrator. They changed the narrator on this book and I am not a fan. I did look and I'm grateful he is only reading two books.

Loved all the emotions
Oh how I love our dear beach friends. I loved all the emotions in this book! Maris and Jason always pull on my heartstrings as I want to help them figure things out. Celia and Shane are facing new adventures with their relationship. Elsa , Mitch and Cliff keep me on the edge of my seat. Looking forward to the next book. ♥️

Waiting is Hard
Again, another hit for the crew. I really appreciate the title because that is what I do every time I finish a book from this series. Can't wait for the next one- resolutions are ahead, I can feel it!

Waiting for relationships to grow
It seems that Stoney Point has come to a standstill with the relationships of some of our beach friends. Jason is still waiting for Maris to let him move back home. Elsa is waiting to be able to open her inn and she is conflicted regarding her feelings for Cliff and now Mitch. Shane and Celia are exploring their tentative relationship, but Celia wants to wait before letting anyone know they are together. The author has given us a tantalizing peek into the lives of these characters we have come to love. But it seems we too will have to wait even longer for our happy ending. I received an arc of this book from the author and this review and comments are my opinion.
