Recently divorced artist Laurel
returns to her childhood village of Middledip, to help her sister Rea overcome
her agoraphobia and to spend some time getting back on her feet.
Middledip holds some dark secrets
for Laurel…secrets she hasn’t even told her sister, but now she’s back in the
village she has to face these demons head on.
However, time stands still when
she sees her old flame, Grady Cassidy – and soon it’s as if they’ve never been
apart. But through her happiness, Laurel is drawn back to the memory of why she
left the village all those years ago…because of Grady’s brother Mac.
Can Laurel learn to forgive and
forget? Or will her chances of Christmas under the mistletoe with Grady remain
a dream?
This is a lovely, but sometimes
hard hitting story of love and tales of the past. Sue Moorcroft never fails
with her books, and although this is another visit to the village of Middledip,
it doesn’t matter if you haven’t read the other books – you really won’t feel
as if you are missing anything – Sue brings you in like a welcome member of the
village rather than a visitor!
Issues like bullying, infertility
and phobias are all addressed in the storyline and are done so sensitively.
This is a story that will have you
up until the early hours of the morning saying to yourself “just one more
chapter…!”
