The Cliff House

By: RaeAnne Thayne

Narrated by: Jorjeana Marie

Three women—two sisters and their aunt—and the cliff house on the northern California coast that served as a beacon to them all…

After the death of their mother, sisters Daisy and Beatriz Davenport found a home with their aunt Stella in the beautiful and welcoming town of Cape Sanctuary. They never knew all the dreams that Stella sacrificed to ensure they had everything they’d ever need. Now, with Daisy and Bea grown, it’s time for Stella to reveal the secret she’s been keeping from them—a secret that will change their family forever.

Bea thought she’d sown all her wild oats when she got pregnant far too young. The marriage that followed was rocky and not destined to last, but it gave Bea her wonderful, mature, now eleven-year-old daughter, Marisol. But just as she’s beginning to pursue a new love with an old friend, Bea’s ex-husband resurfaces and turns their lives completely upside down.

Then there’s Daisy—sensible, rational, financially prudent Daisy. She’s never taken a risk in her life—until she meets a man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about life, love and the power of taking chances.

In this heartwarming story, Stella, Bea and Daisy will discover that the path to true happiness is filled with twists and turns, but love always leads them back home.

I loved the Blue.

The connections in the story were good and multi generational. It stayed focused on the main characters and others weren't really even in the focus. I felt like they could have been my friends.

Love it

Great from beginning to end. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this audio book. It was good following the gals and trying to picture the scenes and the furniture.

Pretty good overall.

It's a typical happy, predictable romance novel. I took off a star due to the narration.
The narrator, Jorjeana Marie, either has a really bad old fashioned tape recorder or birds, because there's a consistent type of chirping noise in the background that's very distracting while wearing earbuds. You can also hear her swallowing a lot and long pauses where there shouldn't be pauses. Her accents aren't great and it's hard to distinguish person to person and narration at times. Also, her male voices are, to be kind, not very good , Honestly, the narration effects the read. If I were the author, I'd ask for it to be re-done by someone else. Buy it on paperback (something I never really say unless the narration is truly bad). You'll enjoy it more.

Great story line!

I think this is one of her best stories yet. The storyline was so interesting and full of some wonderful surprises. You laughed. You cried. You felt all the emotions of the character’s. Great read/listen.

Great engaging storyline

Amazing characters and character development. Great story content. Love the strong women, sisterhood, and family storyline
