Sara Summers Stanton has raised three children and works as a high school teacher at the same school she attended growing up. Her 25-year marriage is showing cracks in the facade and now she's dealing with breast cancer. In a rare moment of taking care of herself instead of everyone else, Sara takes a sabbatical and goes on the trip to Italy she has always dreamed of taking. This search for a more authentic life leads to Julia, a friend she hasn't seen since they were inseparable as girls, nearly 30 years earlier.

They reunite in Florence and their friendship continues where they left off, resulting in an unexpected attraction to each other that threatens to turn Sara's already shaky world upside down. What do you do if you fall in love with your best friend? Sara's inner conflict and subsequent choices reveal an unpredictable yet dynamic future for all the characters. Seeking Sara Summers is an emotional and lyrical novel, a timeless story about love, commitment, and transformation.

I’ve read (or listened to) plenty of fiction in my life, everything from junky beach books to classic literature. I loved this audiobook. Gabriel is a clever, funny, profound writer who quickly takes you into the inner world of her characters, while taking you on an external journey that kept me listening. Sara’s character comes across very clearly and her transformation is inspiring. Big life changes in middle age are rarely easy and the author treats the challenges intelligently. A really satisfying story. And I enjoyed the narration a lot!

A classy love story with wonderful Italian setting

Really wish the author didn't attempt to read her own book. I enjoyed the premise of the story and it wasn't badly written but it was sometimes hard to get through the narration.

Good story not so good narration

Enjoyable book and a story that rings true for a lot of women in their 40’s-50’s. Makes me want to take a trip to Italy. The main character is weak and whiny at times which was somewhat annoying. I️ did not particularly enjoy the performance of the author. I️ feel the story may have told better by someone else but that is just my opinion. Overall I enjoyed the book and would recommend it to others.

Good book!

The book was very good. Nice easy read. However the narration was awful. Broken up, voice had no emotion and you could hear background noises.
