But after forcing her surfing-god husband to make plans for a surfing lesson with Hadley and her son, Margot is left to reminisce about the summer she fell in love with Drum, and the unexpected blossoming of their relationship. When she sees Drum and Hadley spending time together, will the spark reignite - and will her marriage be saved? Or will she find that love is truly gone from this relationship?
A digital edition short story about a wife coming to terms with her fading marriage, based on a subplot from Elin Hilderbrand's forthcoming novel BEAUTIFUL DAY
This audio short story was narrated by Therese Plummer who did an excellent job pulling me into the life of Margot and Drum, making me want to know what happens next. Elin always delivers a summer read that usually hits the spot. I look forward to catching up with these characters in Beautiful Day even though the book is not primarily their story.

This complimentary review copy was received thankfully from Mitch and Hachette Audio and in no way influenced my review of this book. These are my personal thoughts and reactions to the reading of the book.

Haven't read Hilderbrand in a while, but I do love the Nantucket settings....one of my favorite places to visit.
This sounds good but I hate when I only get a tease. I want the whole thing.
I have finally started to listen to audio :D
I think I shall have to visit Nantucket via this book, since I don't think I'll be getting there anytime soon, and it's a place I've always wanted to go. Thanks Nise. I'm kinda liking Albuquerque, at the moment.
Interesting, I've never listened to a short story before. And I do really like Hilderbrand's stories. I'm going to have to give this one a try.
I very much like Therese Plummer as a narrator. I didn't really like the one Hilderbrand novel that I read, but should double check with another at some time.
I haven't read any of Hilderbrand's books. I've seen them around, and would love to give her a chance.
I will have to keep an eye out for this one - I am really into reading books set in that area lately! Have a great week!
I have several of her books on my shelves and haven't read any of them :(
