She is trying to forget the recent breakup of a two-year relationship, yet still find inspiration for a new novel. Here on a stormy afternoon, Casey meets Alex Kettner. Is it fate or coincidence that they run into each other again at dinner? Their unplanned first date strikes a chord in both of them. Now each must deal with new emotions as they wade through their own personal problems. Little does she know that he is still grappling with three years of memories of the passing of his wife. Set amidst the beauty of coastal Maine, Emerald Reflections holds the secret that will break Casey free of her writer’s block and open doors that will affect her future forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A breath of fresh Maine air!,
By Roseanna L. Renaud (Cedar Hill, Texas USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Emerald Reflections (Paperback)
The authors did a wonderful job of taking us right to Belfast, Maine to enjoy the surf and mend a couple of broken hearts. The details surrounding the B & B lore and tie in to the star-crossed lovers from the past really caught my interest. It was definitely an 'Ahhhhh, Romance!' book.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Charming contempoary romance,
This review is from: Emerald Reflections (Paperback)
Following three harrowing months of caring for her cancer stricken mother, whose treatments apparently are working and her Dallas boyfriend of two years Brad Foster abruptly dumping her, Casey Tompkins escapes her personal woes and the summer Texas heat. She travels to the EMERALD REFLECTIONS Bed & Breakfast in Belfast, Maine.Casey hopes to write her second novel, but her computer fails to operate. The owners ask their friend widower Alex Kettner to fix Casey's laptop. Alex is attracted to Casey, the first female he has shown interest in since his wife Carole died from a brain tumor three years ago. He cannot deal with feelings of betrayal because he loved his deceased spouse whom he was married to for twelve years. Casey finds Alex fascinating, but questions whether she should seek a man when she is on the rebound. Both rationalize that she is here to write a book on an 1853 romantic tragedy. Fate intercedes as they coincidentally meet at the same restaurant and agree to share a table. Soon, love starts to flourish, but is it enough for something permanent? Fans of a charming contemporary romance starring two delightful lead protagonists will cherish EMERALD REFLECTIONS. The story line adheres to its main theme of love blossoming between two deserving, but wary warriors. A subplot involving the tragic 1853 tale of love is not only smoothly incorporated into the prime tale, but actually propels forward the main story. Readers who enjoy a picturesque locale with endearing characters and a straightforward love story will peruse this novel and demand more works by Jim Howell and Barbara Carraway. Harriet Klausner
