After You » (Unabridged, 1 MP3-CD, 6 hrs. 1 min.)

Annie Garrett is a pseudonym for Kelli Pryor, a celebrity journalist for Entertainment Weekly and New York Magazine. She lives in Limerick, Maine.

Clare McClendon would have to think hard to remember the face of Riley Brackett, the boy who led her into so much trouble when she was 17. Life has gone on -- she has forged a career, gotten married, and is now shouldering her way through the vicissitudes of life, trying to keep her marriage from faltering as her husband copes with his mother's illness and decline. Then, in the day-to-day midst of it all, Clare learns that Riley has had a boating accident and remembers nothing since his last night with her. Reluctantly, Clare agrees to meet Riley again on the island off the coast of Maine where they fell in love so long ago. For him, it is as it once was. And though it is against her better judgment, Clare is soon caught up in the memories herself. But it is not her 17th summer, nor is it Riley's. Their commitments are waiting to be hohored. Does a love like theirs deserve a second chance?

Wow! Finally, a good old-fashioned love story. I got completely lost in the romance of this book. I loved the country. I loved the relationship. I loved the love. It's going to make a great movie.
