I received a free download of this
book through The Romance Reviews website
[http://www.theromancereviews.com] in
return for my honest opinion
How would you feel if the wonderful
guy you’re about to marry suddenly ups and dies just a week before your wedding
day, then you’ll know precisely how Anna felt when her fiancé, Murray, had
died. Unfortunately since that tragic day, on a daily basis she would receive
an onslaught of condolences, gazing looks of sympathy, etc. from both friends
and strangers alike.
Eventually Anna had taken all she
could bare and decides ditch her current environment and move to the cottage
she’s inherited from her fiancé and his family in Regina Beach.
As a child of the 1950’s I can
remember those autograph books we used to use when we graduated junior high
school [9th grade at the school I went to] where we would say congratulations
to our friends. etc. Sometimes we would write little fun things like:
2 GOOD
2 B
4 GOT TEN
[which was written as an addition
problem] or things like:
“Don’t make love by the garden gate.
Love is blind, but the neighbors ain’t.”
This is the kind of place Regina
Beech is, a place where everyone has to know everyone else’s business; and this
is especially true when it came to someone who’s just moved there.
Along with Anna who’s here to
recover from her drastic loss, we have Nick, a Sergeant in the Canadian Army
who came home to recover from his tragic accident where he lost a limb due to
an IED explosion. Both of these two main characters were there to find some
sort of solace from their own predicaments, and it’s a chance meeting her first
night in Regina Beach which and brought these two “lost” souls together.
I loved how the relaxed dialogue
shortly ensued soon afterwards and then eventually led their relationship to
blossoming into one of a more serious nature. However, this could never grow
into a truly open relationship since she refuses to talk about her past, and he
refuses to talk about his future, especially where it concerns his desire to
return to active duty. Who will be the first one to break the silence and share
their secret? Will their relationship become a happy ever after one? I’m not saying, but I am giving Ms. Bower’s
book 5 STARS !!!
