CIRCLE of FRIENDS
May the circle be unbroken...
They'd been friends growing up on the small East Coast island of Harmony--Julia, Lauren and Cathryn, Amber and the others. Now one of them is dead, and Julia Lewis goes home for the first time in seven years.
Julia's grief makes this a bittersweet experience. But coming home is also a chance to revive old memories and reconnect with her circle of old friends. And to fall--hard--for a Boston journalist named Ben Grant who now owns the island's weekly paper.

With his charming smile and awkward questions, Ben's causing all kinds of complications in Harmony's little world. And in Julia's...

Not going to lie, I only picked up and read this story since the book had the same name as me, although I was surprised to find that it was pretty enjoyable.
I'm all there for a fun murder mystery, the romance was a good slow burn, and it was refreshing to see a character in 1998 romance novel repeatedly ask for consent. Overall, it was a pretty enjoyable read that kept me turning the pages.

A surprisingly good story, well told. Usually murder in romance novels makes them feel weak, this one was well handled. The style reminded me of Nora Roberts, I would read more by this author.
