4.0 out of 5 stars
three fine contemporary tales, September 17, 2005
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.
