    Beach Breeze , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 543min
    From the New York Times best-selling author of Beach Blues comes a novel of summers you never forget and friendships that never fade.  After a heartbreaking summer on the Connecticut shore, a group of beach friends is as adrift as an unmoored rowboat. When a dismayed Jason Barlow drives as far away from the sea as he can, leaving behind his wife, Maris, as well as their stately cottage on the bluff, that news hits like a sudden wave. Gathering over an intimate meal in a coastal diner, the friends make a solemn pact to lean on each other and not make any more rash decisions.   Which is all well and good, until each friend wavers--testing relationships, commitments, and especially love in the little beach community of Stony Point.
