Summary
Jill and Carrie - both married with teenage children - meet one day during Jill's lunch break at a local park. Soon a friendship is forged. A friendship that deepens with each visit.
Jill's husband still lives and breathes the coach's life, a life that leaves him little time to spare for Jill. Left on her own more and more, Jill finds herself searching for the indefinable something that has been missing all her life.
Married to a successful businessman, Carrie Howell retired early from a career in real estate to spend more time with her teenage boys and to pursue her lone passion - painting. She, too, has felt for some time that something is missing from her world.
The Cottage is the story of two women pulled by a force stronger than their marriages, stronger than themselves. The story of Jill and Carrie. Two women. One love.

sad
but beautiful story of two unhappy women who share one glorious summer, and find real love. even in the sadness (many tears) you never know when love will find you, make the most of your time together, it can be fleeting.

Sad ending - could not finish
No happy ever after ending. I got to 1/2 way and read other reviews and realised it was not going to end well. So I stopped after the couple got together. In my universe they ended up happy ever after and if I don't listen to the rest of the story then it is true for me. Beautifully read by Abby Craden (as per) and a lovely story - bar the sad ending.

If you believe in soulmates, then this is for you.
This story will tug at your heart but will also fill you with warmth, tenderness, love and hope. ❤️🩹
Abby Craden is the perfect narrator for this, and her emotional range takes this story to deeper levels.
Gerri Hill is always good, and this book is no exception. A short but powerful story about finding love in unexpected places.

Happy doesn’t always have an ever after
What a fabulous story of love, Gerri Hill demonstrating her skill as a storyteller. How this must resonate with so many people. So addictive even though you can see the end! Loved it, suffers the disappointment but wouldn’t have missed it!

Box of Tissues at the ready
The beginning was a give away for the end but Geri Hill so beautifully writes the romance between two women. Characters were relatable and the trials in-between made for a page turner or almost one off listen as I couldn't put it down. As a reader/listener you go through all of the emotions with the characters and there are not many books where I'm so connected to the characters that I literally smile, laugh and cry as the story unfolds.
Narration was wonderful and Abby's inflections and tone worked to bring to life the story.
Truly a lovely pairing of author and narrator.

just a lovely story
I enjoy this author's work anyway but this book is something a bit different and it has become a favourite of mine. A love story set in real life with believable characters - including the disapproving mother in law. Abbey Craden, as usual, brought the characters to life and made it an enjoyable listen. Finished too soon!
