On day while real estate agent Julie Ferris and her sister
Laura are spending the day at the beach, something strange
happens. Afterwards neither Julie or Laura can explain what
happened. Julie is left with these blinding headaches that
no one can explain but, Julie believes that it has to with
the stress , that she has been under since Patrick Donovan
took over running his father's company.
Patrick parties
hard, with woman, booze and drugs until he has
a heart attack and nearly dies. After a stunning recovery,
Patrick becomes a completely different man. Julie can hardly
recognize the new man that Patrick has become. Julie's
intuition is telling her something is not quite right but,
she's not sure whether it has to do with the strange
experience that she had at the beach.
As Julie's feeling
for Patrick deepens, she's about to discover a link between
the happiness that she has found and the strange beach
experience that she had.
I originally found the idea of SEASON OF STRANGERS very
interesting but, it didn't live up my
expectations because it got just a little too creepy for me.
Even though Julie
and Patrick always had feelings for each, I didn't feel the
connection between them and felt that their
relationship was rushed as a result. I expected to Julie to
be more suspicious of the Patrick's sudden transformation
but, she really wasn't.
I also didn't like Julie's sister,
Laura. She was very needy and
I wished she would be more self-reliant instead of
depending on Julie to fix everything. In contrast, I really
liked Julie's character. I found her to be kind, strong and
very reliable. She was the kind of person that you can
always count
on and I felt you really got to know her well -- her hopes,
her dreams and her pain.
Dedicated, driven
real estate agent Julie Ferris is enjoying a day at the
beach with her
sister Laura when a strange, almost undetectable charge
fills the air.
Then, under the hot Malibu sun, time stops altogether.
Neither
sister can explain their "lost day"—nor the blinding
headaches and
horrific nightmares that follow—but Julie chalks it up to
the stress
she's been under since her boss's son took over Donovan Real
Estate.
Patrick
Donovan would be a real catch if not for his notorious playboy
lifestyle and matching attitude. But when a cocaine-fueled
heart attack
nearly kills him, Patrick makes an astonishingly fast—and
peculiar—recovery. Julie barely recognizes the newly sober
Patrick as
the same man she once struggled to resist. Maybe it's the
strange beach
experience fueling her paranoia, but she can't help sensing
something
just isn't…right.
As Julie's feelings for Patrick
intensify,
she's about to discover how that day at the beach links her
newfound
happiness with her wildest suspicions.…
