About this listen

Set sail along Carlisle Bay.

Olivia Shields is back in Carlisle Bay, Connecticut, after having traveled the world as a professional ballet dancer. Dancing was her life. Chasing performance dreams is all she's ever known or planned for. One summer she spent in Carlisle Bay before heading to Juilliard left her both heartbroken and more focused on her career than ever. A back injury has forced some changes. She'll take on a new role as the manager of her aunt's coastal boutique. After all, she's completely over the boy who broke her heart forever ago. Brady Carlisle has recently returned to Carlisle Bay; the hometown of his family's namesake. He's spent the last decade in California, designing and patenting surfboards. Becoming his own man without relying on the Carlisle name is all he's ever wanted. Just as life seems to be getting on track, the boutique could be lost. The Shields women have got a few storms to weather. They aren't the only ones. The Carlisle family has held on to secrets for over a decade. Thankfully, these two former summer sweethearts have the kind of friends who make life's damaged surfaces less difficult to repair with wit and humor. Recapturing a summer love swept out at sea thirteen years earlier can be as rough as a stormy sea. Will secrets and heartache of the past keep them apart? Life may not always be smooth sailing along the shores of Carlisle Bay, and fireworks are sure to be found.

There have been minimal changes since the audio release which you may notice if following along with a visual copy, including the name Bart from the audio which has now been changed to Noah.

Olivia is back and so is Brady. They've both grown up and get to revisit their romance from years ago and work through their issues. Olivia is skeptical and who could blame her, Brady finally opens up and explains what happened. The story really evolved and was easy to follow. Loved the characters, especially Olivia's aunt! Can't wait to listen to the continuation of the story in Dancing by the Christmas Lights.

Dancing by the Moonlight is a light PG/PG-13 beach read. They story ends in a good place even though it's obviously not finished. There were a lot of characters introduced and I hoped it would turn into a couple concurrent HFNs, but it didn't to the extent I'd hoped. There's always book two....

The narration was really good. There was one "storm" sound effect that sounded out of place because it was the only one, but overall I really liked the performance.

Great narration
