"Kathleen McInerney superbly narrates this perfect summer listen."—AudioFile

"Narrator Kathleen McInerney exudes beach-read energy in this entertaining audiobook." —AudioFile on The Homewreckers

Book your summer escape with a "mesmerizing mix of mystery and romance" (Publishers Weekly, starred) from the New York Times bestselling author of The Homewreckers and The Newcomer.

Welcome to the St. Cecelia, a landmark hotel on the coast of Georgia, where traditions run deep and scandals run even deeper. . . .

Everyone refers to the St. Cecelia as “the Saint.” If you grew up coming here, you were “a Saint.” If you came from the wrong side of the river, you were “an Ain’t.” Traci Eddings was one of those outsiders whose family wasn’t rich enough or connected enough to vacation here. But she could work here. One fateful summer she did, and married the boss’s son. Now, she’s the widowed owner of the hotel, determined to see it return to its glory days, even as staff shortages and financial troubles threaten to ruin it. Plus, her greedy and unscrupulous brother-in-law wants to make sure she fails. Enlisting a motley crew of recently hired summer help—including the daughter of her estranged best friend—Traci has one summer season to turn it around. But new information about a long-ago drowning at the hotel threatens to come to light, and the tragic death of one of their own brings Traci to the brink of despair.

Traci Eddings has her back against the pink-painted wall of this beloved institution. And it will take all the wits and guts she has to see wrongs put to right, to see guilty parties put in their place, and maybe even to find a new romance along the way. Told with Mary Kay Andrew’s warmth, humor, knack for twists, and eye for delicious detail about human nature, Summers at the Saint is a beach listen with depth and heart.

I didn't want it to end

I listened to this book in one day!! it's 2am and I just finished. so sad its over. there was a bit of mystery, some romance, a bit a drama, the book kept me wanting to know what happened. there are lots of well developed characters. I would love for there to be a sequel to this book. I know I'll miss everyone who works at the saint!

A change from the norm

Still a romance, but with a mystery thrown in. I’ve never loved this narrator but I endure for the sake of a good MKA book! ❤️

Enjoyed the story

It was a fun, light "beach" read, and I enjoyed the story and the setting. I was confused by the narration because much of the time it sounded robotic.

Twists and turns with unexpected sadness.

This was such a good book with many twists and turns! I enjoy her writing, but this one may be my favorite I’ve read so far from her.
