About this listen

Don’t miss this warm and witty novel from the No.1 Sunday Times bestselling author Fern Britton. The perfect Cornish Escape!

A lifetime of friendship. A lifetime of secrets.

Greer Clovelly seems to have it all: beautiful, chic and slender, she’s used to getting her own way. Greer has been in love with Jesse Behenna since her first day at school and she’s determined that one day, they’ll be married. After all, a marriage between them would join together two dynasties of Cornish fishing families to make one prosperous one.

For her friend, Loveday Carter – plump, freckled and unpretentious – living in the shadow of her friend has become a way of life. She loves Jesse too, but knows that what Greer wants, she usually gets.

Jesse, caught in the middle, faces an agonising choice. Should he follow his heart or bow to his father’s wishes? And what about his best friend Mickey, who worships the ground that Loveday walks on?

Jesse’s decision will touch them all in ways that they could never foresee, and as the dark clouds start to gather the four friends find themselves weathering a storm – one that has the power to sink them all…

Really good listen

I enjoyed this book, it moved at a good pace but at the same time you could relax into it. The characters really stayed with me and were well rounded. Maybe a sequel Fern???

Captivating Tale!

This story captivated me from the word go! Fern’s use of language and dialect when reading, were delightful. The story was well rounded with plenty of emotion and drama. I thoroughly enjoyed the listen.
