About this listen

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.

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.

Sad

It is a pretty run of the mill story, however it was really sad in the end and that is what I ended up really liking about it.

It makes you realise that you should NEVER take anything for granted.

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.
