“Every once in a while, a novelist writes a book that transcends all her others—because this one isn’t merely a good story, it’s a story wrung from the novelist’s heart; every line squeezed from personal tears, pain, and struggle. Cottage by the Sea is that kind of book for my friend Robin Jones Gunn. I know her heart, and I know you will grow and be blessed by reading this book, her novel-from-the-heart.”
—Angela Hunt, author of Five Miles South of Peculiar
