A lot can happen, a lot can change, in 25 years.

Best Friends by Tara Taylor Quinn

Jolene and Tina have been best friends for twenty-five years. Too bad Jolene's marriage isn't as solid as her friendship. But who better to talk to about your most intimate problems than your very best friend?

Wade in the Water by Margot Early

Lily Moran is observing a tragic anniversary--her brother's death. She blames herself, just as her parents blame her then-boyfriend, Colin Gardner. For the first time, she's returning home to scatter the ashes of the past and--maybe--find love and peace in the present. With her family...and with Colin.

A Visit from Eileen by Janice Macdonald

Eileen Doyle left Ireland twenty-five years ago to start a new life in California. But nothing turned out as she expected, so she reinvented herself in letters home. Now Eileen has to return to face the truth--and the man who broke her heart.

This review is from: 25 Years: Best Friends/Wade in the Water/A Visit from Eileen (Harlequin Superromance Anthology, No 1297) (Mass Market Paperback)

"Best Friends" by Tara Taylor Quinn. In Boulder, after failing to become pregnant in spite of their efforts, the relationship of Jolene and Steve has become shaky until out of love she informs her spouse she wants a divorce. However, Steve relaxes somewhat knowing she has the jitters, but panics when his beloved vanishes while on a trip without him as she is his world.

"Wade in the Water" by Margot Early. Twenty-five years ago Lily's younger brother died, but though time allegedly heals all wounds, she remains devastated. However, her former lover Colin gives it one last try to help his beloved move on because he still loves Lily.

"A Visit from Eileen" by Janice MacDonald. After years out of country Eileen returns to Ireland where she and her former heartthrob Kieran realize they remain in love with one another. However, everyone including Kieran expects her to leave soon to return to her new life so they act accordingly.

These are three fine contemporary tales starring likable couples though the women seem to carry all the emotional baggage while the men are patient and there for them.
