Book description
The Summer Wind is a soothing, heart-warming listen that takes you back to the salty air and creaking boards of Sullivan's Island. In Mary Alice Monroe's Lowcountry Summer trilogy, this second volume deepens the story that began with the New York Times bestseller The Summer Girls. As an audiobook, it feels like a gentle breeze-soft narration, clear voices for each sister, and just enough ambient sound to evoke the island's rhythm.
The plot is as comforting as a familiar quilt: Eudora "Dora" is juggling a divorce, her child's autism diagnosis, and a house on the market. Her facade cracks, and she falls into what Monroe calls "broken heart syndrome." Mamaw and her daughters rally around her, but Dora must confront her own grief by spending quiet days on the beach, uncovering island secrets that mirror her inner journey.
What makes this book stand out is how each character's arc intertwines with the others. Carson returns from Florida to make life-changing decisions; Lucille faces a health scare; and Harper-an unexpected visitor-finds herself questioning her direction. When a tropical storm hits, the women are forced to band together against both the literal wind and their emotional tempests. Through it all, Mamaw's steadfast love keeps the family tethered.
Monroe's prose is lush but never heavy, offering vivid descriptions that let you taste the salt spray and feel the grit of old sea-breeze boards. The audiobook narrator captures each character's voice with warmth, making the sisters' conversations feel like a friendly gathering around a fire pit. The pacing is steady-enough to keep listeners engaged without rushing through the emotional beats.
In short, The Summer Wind delivers on its promise: a tale of rediscovery, sisterhood, and resilience set against a Southern backdrop that feels both specific and universal. Whether you're an audiobook fan or new to Monroe's trilogy, this summer read will leave you with a sense of hope, a renewed appreciation for family bonds, and the comforting knowledge that even in the fiercest storms, home is where the heart learns to heal.
