About this listen
The charming vacation house on the coast of Maine was meant to be a heavenly retreat for Danica Lindsay and her husband Blake, a place where they could mend the wounds of a strained and tired marriage. Instead, she finds herself mostly there alone while Blake's political star is rapidly rising back in Boston. Were it not for the companionship of her new neighbor, gentle and caring Michael Buchanan, Danica would surely be overcome by loneliness and despair.
But a friendship that is cherished and uplifting is slowly transforming into something less innocent, more passionate - something that could easily be called love. For the first time in her life, a chance for true happiness may be in Danica's reach. But how can she grab onto it when she remains another man's wife, bound by her vows to a marriage plagued by doubt and pain...and by secrets so shocking that an entire nation will take notice?

The Maxwells and the Popes have been friends forever. The women were college roommates, their husbands are partners in the same law firm, their kids have grown up next door to each other, and the two families share both vacations and holidays. Like Wisteria Lane, the "perfect" suburban street of Desperate Housewives, all is beautiful and serene - until an accident forces these close neighbors to look beneath the surface. In this moving, unforgettable story, Barbara Delinsky exquisitely captures the depth and complexity of the human heart as few writers can.

Lark Smith has always had a plan for her life: find a fantastic guy, create a marriage as blissful as her parents’, pop out a couple of kids, and build a rewarding career as an oncologist. Things aren’t going so well. For one, the guy didn’t work out. Theoretically, she’d love to find someone else, but it hasn’t happened. Two, she’s just been transferred out of Oncology for being too emotional. (Is it her fault she’s a weeper?) Three, her parents just split up. Deviating from the plan was … well, not in the plan. A potential solution comes from the foul-tempered surgeon Lorenzo Santini.

Excellent story...Too bad it's not been updated!
Written originally in 1989, the lack of updates (no cell phones, in particular) detracted from its believability in the present day. I enjoyed the story...though sad to think this womans' life was so manipulated by her father & then her husband.

Flashback to the past.
Keep in mind this story was written in 1986, and set a few years earlier than that. It's hard as a woman to listen to how controlled Danika is, however makes you proud of how far we've come.

a strong woman fighting her way to self awareness
At times I found the story repeating itself. Michael and Denny going.round and round again, with so much patience, every time with her "need to be moral, fair, with a conscience !! I lost patience with her. Get up and Be your own person, you do not really owe anyone anything except to yourself. But in the end she comes out on top, Happy End!! Love wins all!! Good storytelling!!

Within Minutes
Within Reach might be more aptly titled Within Minutes. Two strangers meet on a foggy beach and within minutes are practically soul mates. I gave up after the first couple of chapters because I couldn't tolerate the Reader nor the false spontaneous bonding that occurred between the main characters.

Enjoyed it
Read a review about Michael’s soft voice being a problem. I quit listening once as it was hard to hear him plus the soft voice kind of drove me nuts. Gave it a 2nd chance and I’m glad I did. It turned out to be a sweet story. I’d say the narrator did a good job except on Michael’s voice.

The beautiful relationship
The beginning was a bit to get involved with. I grew to love the characters. Then, when the meat of the story came about I was addicted. Kept my interest thru the end. Great Barbara as usual!
