About this listen
Being fired is not a pleasant experience, although it’s something I’ve become good at. I’ve had more jobs than most people have in a lifetime. When my gran has an accident, I find myself volunteering to manage her seaside café. I’m the last person anyone should rely on, but for some crazy reason, I’m on my way to save the day. What could possibly go wrong?
Clover Bay is my home. Keeping my head down and enjoying the simple life is all I want. Jody’s temporarily staying in the village to help her grandmother. At first, she seems high maintenance, but it isn’t long before I can see through the cracks. I don’t want to like her, but there is something about her I can’t stay away from.
Can one small village set two hearts free, or will Clover Bay become a distant memory of summer dreams for Jody?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 26
Abby Field loves every inch of Meadowsweet Nature Reserve on the idyllic Suffolk coast, where she lives and works. Especially Swallowtail House, the rambling but empty country house that seems to look out at her each time she passes its shut-up windows. When a TV wildlife programme choses a rival location for their new series, Meadowsweet is under threat - unless Abby can whip up a plan to keep the visitors flocking. But she finds herself distracted by the arrival of a brooding - and annoyingly handsome - new neighbour...bad-boy novelist Jack Westcoat.

When Cara stumbles across a stash of old postcards in the attic, their contents make her question everything she thought she knew. The story she pieces together is confusing and unsettling, and appears to have been patched over with lies. But who can tell her the truth? With her father sinking into Alzheimer’s and her brother reluctant to help, it seems Cara will never find the answers to her questions.

The picture house by the sea is the Palace at Polwhipple - a lovely art deco cinema nestled in front of azure Cornish seas. But it is long past its heyday now, and its only saving grace is Ferrelli's, the family run ice-cream concession in the foyer, which is widely known as the best ice cream for miles. So when Ferdie, the owner of Ferelli's, breaks his leg, his granddaughter Gina drops everything to come and help out.

A family friend, Valerie, has been trying to keep things afloat, but the coffee machine is jammed, the cake offerings are paltry, and not all of the locals want to see the café succeed.

Heartfelt small town love story
The Heart of Baker Bay is my first book by Danielle Jacks, and it was fantastic. The characters were lovable, and it was a page turner. Jody and Adam meet in a small town by the beach. He is drawn to something about her. She is a free spirit, but she might have found her calling at Her grandmother’s tea room. She finds a purpose, her place in life, and love. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this book. I can’t wait to check out more titles!

love the characters and the story
I really loved the characters in this story - the "loser" female and the "reclusive" male.
I'm happy with the happy-ending of the story - they both deserved it!
The audio quality wasn't good - it felt like it was recorded in a basement - there was an eco and a metallic sound to the narrator. Also, when there are multiple POV, it is my preference to have more than one narrator.
I received a free review copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Beautiful Slow Burn Romance!
This was my first Danielle Jacks's book. This small town romance is beautifully written, sweet, and heartwarming. Jody and Adam's story is emotional. The characters are complex and interesting. This is a beautiful slow burn romance. Joanne Lohr is a new narrator to me. She has a beautiful voice, pleasant to listen to.
