About this listen

At the end of summer, sixteen years ago, we promised we’d keep in touch. And I did.

She didn’t.

I spent a year reaching out to her in every way imaginable, desperately clinging to the future we’d planned while we walked hand-in-hand on the beach. When July rolled around again, I waited eagerly, for her family’s return.

They never came.

She never came.

I blamed her. I blamed myself. I blamed my big, involved family who are basically royalty on this island our ancestors found. After a while, I forgave her and moved on.

Of course I did.

Carrying a torch for sixteen years would be ridiculous.

So the fact that she’s come back to the island, apparently to stay? Doesn’t matter to me at all.

Maybe I’ve been asking God why, but I figure He’s got some kind of plan.

I can probably learn to accept her as a member of our little town, but that’s where it has to end.

My heart’s still too shattered to risk breaking it again.

(Second Chance at the Seaside is Book 1 in the Beachfront Billionaires Christian Romance Series.)

This book made me smile because of the fantastic banter between Bennett and his family, and the kindness the townsfolk extended to Jericho. But my heart ached with how hard it was for Bennett and Jericho to be in the same island town again after sixteen years apart. The emotion in this book was real and raw, and the narrators did a fantastic job of portraying it.

If you love clean, second-chance romances, you’ll love this book for sure! It’s dual POV with Christian themes and swoony scenes.

My favorite thing about Bennett’s mom was how supportive she was of her boys; always with a kind word or some sage advice.

I couldn’t stop listening because I wanted to see Bennett and Jericho get their happy ending, and the audio was just so good!

I love how the book showed the power of unconditional love and forgiveness.

Jericho and Bennett were just adorable together!

I highly recommend this book and anything written by Elizabeth Maddrey!

A heartwarming small-town second-chance romance!
