Summary:
It’s summertime on the North Carolina coast and the livin’ is easy. Unless, that is, you’ve just lost your mother to cancer, your sister to her extremist husband, and your husband to his executive assistant. Meet Gray Howard. Right when Gray could use a serious infusion of good karma in her life, she inadvertently gets a stranger, Diana Harrington, fired from her job at the local pharmacy. Diana Harrington’s summer isn’t off to the greatest start either: Hours before losing her job, she broke up with her boyfriend and moved out of their shared house with only a worn-out Impala for a bed. Lucky for her, Gray has an empty guest house and a very guilty conscience. With Gray’s kindness, Diana’s tide begins to turn. But when her first love returns, every secret from her past seems to resurface all at once. And, as Gray begins to blaze a new trail, she discovers, with Diana’s help, that what she envisioned as her perfect life may not be what she wants at all.
My thoughts:
Kristy Woodson Harvey is one of my favorite southern fiction writers and I have read all her books to-date! When she announced that she was going to be doing a #ChaptersTour to help celebrate 10 years of her being a published author, I was all in! The first book was Feels Like Falling and I thought, not only would I reread it, but I suggested my mom and sisters read it with me and we could discuss it at our girls’ weekend in early November.
I was thrilled that everyone loved the book as much as I did. We had a great discussion and it was fun hearing what they all had to say.

Audio thoughts:
This time around, I decided to listen to the book and really enjoyed it on audio. I’ve listened to Kristy’s last few books on audio and find they really do translate well on audiobook with the right narrator and this one certainly did. Having two narrators here, one for each viewpoint was definitely the right choice, and Kelsey Navarro and Amanda Ronconi, did an amazing job with their parts.
