Mills & Boon Blush series brings you moving, true-to-life romancesCIRCLE of FRIENDSMay the circle be unbroken
Christmas. A time for first love and second chances.
As a girl, Lauren DeStefano fell in love with Cameron Hathaway the gold boy of Harmony, Massachusetts. The innocence of that first love was followed by grief and by rejection and finally, a long slow climb to success.
Lauren, now living in Boston, is still close to her circle of Harmony friends Julia, Cathryn and the others. But she thumbs her nose at the rest of the community especially when she buys historic Rockland House.
She plans to remodel it in time for Christmas and gets more than she bargained for. More expenses, more problems more memories. All of which she figures she can handle. But discovering she still has feelings for Cameron? That's something else. Can the past repeat itself with a different and happier ending? With marriage to Cam, a home on Harmony and a baby?
Did I read this because I wanted to see Julia and Ben in the background being happy and in love? ...maybe...
I did enjoy this read, although I was hoping for more of the thriller aspect I liked of the Julia book (This is a different premise, so of course it doesn't have that). I do like this author's detail to her characters and the world, and the romance was cute. Having only read this author for romance books, I am pleasantly surprised how she does push for equality in relationships as I previously assumed romance novels don't typically highlight consent and safety.
