Resumen del Editor
"She's beauty for my ashes. And I'm hope for her heartache." (Cole Danzer)
I don't know what makes a great love story. Is it that instant attraction when boy meets girl? The passionate kisses and the fairy-tale ending? Or is it a lifetime of tragedy, paid in advance, for a few stolen moments of pure bliss? Is it the pain and the suffering that in the end you can say are worth it for having found the missing piece of your soul?
The answer is: I don't know. I don't know what makes a great love story. I only know what makes my love story. I only know that finding Cole when I did, when Emmy and I were running from a nightmare, was the only thing that saved me. That saved us. He was more broken than I was, but somehow we took each other's shattered pieces and made a whole. If that is what makes a great love story, if that is what makes an epic romance, then mine...ours is the greatest of them all.

Before senior year, I was forced to move away, leaving behind the only man I have ever loved. He promised he'd love me forever. He vowed nothing would tear us apart. He swore he'd wait for me, but Jack lied. Six years later, when our paths cross again, his broad shoulders, rock-hard chest, and rippling muscles almost make me forget his betrayal. His rugged voice, tempting lips, and sinful smile make it harder for me to deny the feelings I still have for him. He wants to make me his again, but our past may be too much for us to overcome.

Regret, she's a snarky little bitch. I've tried several times to regret the events that took place on June 5, 2008, but for the life of me, I can't. I'd never regret the pain, the suffering, or the heartache because they ultimately led me to the place I am in now. And I can't regret the place I am in now. What I still can't figure out is this: How is it possible that the single worst day of my life inadvertently became the very best day? Five years ago my life was irrevocably changed. Seventeen minutes was all it took to lose my best friend, to lose the love of my life.

Forty-five, recently divorced and a certified hot mess. The last thing Fiona needs to start her vacation is a flooded hotel room and a broken-down car. Alas, that’s what she gets. She’s ready to pack it all in and go home - wherever that is - when her knight in a wet T-shirt strides in to save the day. Jaw-dropping, panty-melting Grant Greene takes the 'mess' out of 'certified hot mess' when he walks up to Fiona and offers her a room to stay. No strings attached. Great, right?

A RAW, HEARTBREAKING & YET BEAUTIFUL TEAR-JERKER
Eden and her 6 yr old daughter move to a little town in Maine, she's running away from her past and from the people in it and hopefully she's running to somewhere safe. She's heard talk of a mysterious man called crazy Cole but when their eyes meet, as he's building a sandcastle on the beach, two lost souls connect yet no words are spoken. It turns out Cole is the owner of the cottage she's renting and he's repairing the one across from her so they are constantly watching each other but seldom speak..... until, one day, tentative words are spoken which will eventually open the floodgates to let heartache, painful memories, anguish, tragedy, loss, suffering, regrets and sorrow in. But it also lets in desire, tender feelings, hope, forgiveness, healing, precious peace and, best of all, hard won love.
Wow, this is a hard hitting emotionally challenging book as Cole is broken, Eden is damaged and little Emmy trusts no-one, speaks to no-one and touches no-one but her doting Mom. It's a heart-wrenching story as they both eventually share in their devastating pasts and slowly learn to trust and heal through touches, looks, broken pain-filled words and passion-filled sex (but more loving than explicit).
Dual POV's but the majority is from Eden's, very good narration that connects and glues you to these loveable fractured characters, the story was heartbreaking, raw, painful yet beautiful and romantic too. But the two choice ending baffled me - A. continue to listen or B. skip to Chapter 33 so I continued to listen and was happily rewarded but curiosity can be an evil bitch so I also listened to option B. and wished I hadn't. If you too feel curiosity's curse and you MUST listen to both, but I hope you can resist, then skip to Chapter 33 listen to that ending then go back and listen to option A..... the true HEA ending us romantics eagerly anticipate.
Worth a credit? This was a well written but heartbreaking love story which I have to warn you (SPOILER ALERT) deals with the death of a child and child abuse (END OF SPOILER) but despite this these three fractured people find each other, let one another in and reap the rewards of becoming, still bruised, but whole once more. It's not a book I'd like to listen to again and it's one that will forever haunt me but it was a bitter-sweet 5 star creditworthy listen.

This is a nice "Happy Ever After" story with some tears. It was a little slow starting but once it got going I enjoyed it.

How to mend a broken soul?
What did you like best about this story?
This book has two endings, one HEA and the other a cliffhanger - I have different ratings for each.
HEA - 4.5 Stars
The four stars goes to the execution and narration. I was able to imagine Cole, Eden, and Emmy's world, their present and their pasts. In short, I smelled the ocean, felt the sand on my toes and fingers, the cold of winter, and warmth of the hearth. M. Leighton was able to pull me in by the way she built the characters' world and develop each one of them from broken pieces to somewhat together as a whole. The dialogue was sharp and engaging, I loved the interaction between Cole and Eden and between Eden and Emmy. One thing I didn't feel believable though is that Emmy as a 6 year old, with not a lot of interaction with people in healthy relationships, seem to have too much insight regarding a relationship between her mom and Cole. (When you read it you'll see what I mean.)
The narration is also executed well by M. Makena and R. Wayne. I don't believe I have listened to either one of their narrations before but I think I will listen to more of Roger's. The performance were as they should be, neither one of them sounded too young nor too old. I believe, it is due to narration that I could imagine or internalize the characters and understand the subtext of their dialogue. The additional .5 star is for a well-written story, I understood the context without feeling like the author was holding my hand - the writing and dialogue was consistent and believable. I didn't read this book, I felt it.
So I subtracted half a star from perfect because, I don't think it's very realistic to believe that the happy ending is solid. Three people with PTSD need a lot more than each other to heal. I think that the HEA is fragile at this point so I think the ending is incomplete and abrupt. But I think it is rushed because of the alternate ending that leads to the next book.
Cliffhanger - 3.5 stars.
So all of the above but I am subtracting a half star from all the goodness because it is a cliffhanger. I'm sorry, it's one of my pet peeves - I NEVER buy a book that is not finished - I won't even look into it until all the books are out since I believe it is a waste of my time. The alternate ending is so out of context that I don't think it detracts from the book or the HEA. It is intriguing that I would like to read the second book (only when the third book is out, if there is one). But, I have reservations because I don't know how I would feel dragging these characters into more heartache. If this wasn't a Whispersync book, I probably wouldn't have wasted a credit on this (just because of the cliffhanger issue). That is how I loathe unfinished business, had I not known of the alternate HEA ending, I would not have even given this a chance.
I'm glad I did though because it was worth my time and then some.

Last half of book was good if you can make it through the first half.
I almost gave up on this book because the beginning was not written well, but it got better towards the second half of the book.

Two broken people find love .....
I enjoyed the unfolding story of this listen. The narration was ok....I did not care for the female performance as a male ...other wise it is a worth while listen! Cole has a tragic past of losing the daughter he loved and guilt for not spending enough time with her. Eden's past is beyond tragic ... and the result was the love her life, her daughter. The two broken souls fall in love with each other and share a connection with Emmy ... Eden's beautiful daughter. There are two ending you can chose from. The first was more in line with the story. The second ... I am not sure what to think about. It was incongruous with the Eden and Cole story I heard, however I suppose it could be a cliff hanger for another Cole and Eden story ..... definitely worth a listen! In my humble opinion it was worth the credit I used. Definitely would be worth a sale!

Wonderful Story!
Eden and Emmy are running from their past. They have been on the move for two years. Maybe this time they can stay in Miller's Pond. They meet Jordan, a friendly lady a few years older than Eden. Jason, who is Jordan's brother and wants to get to know Eden better. And then there is Cole. A man who is broken because of his past. Eden is drawn to Cole but isn't sure she should want to be. This story ripped my heart out and left me crying a river of tears in the end. It is a fantastic story that will have you glued to each page and leave you wanting more. A friend gifted this copy to me and I am so glad she did. M. Leighton is a fantastic storyteller and I fall for her hero and heroine every time. So grab this on and enjoy the ride that is Pocketful of Sand.

Female narrator ruined it for me
I tried to get through this book but by the tenth chapter or so I couldn't take it anymore. The female narrator was horrible. Her Maine accent was ridiculous mix between Boston and new York. She was so monotone, when the love scene come around I couldn't even tell. The only reason I gave the narration two stars is because Roger Wayne was awesome as usual.
