Until Then

Cape Harbor, Book 2

De: Heidi McLaughlin

Narrado por: Karissa Vacker

From New York Times bestselling author Heidi McLaughlin comes an uplifting story about two old friends finding new love.

Rennie Wallace has it all: a boyfriend, a good job, a best friend who lives a stone’s throw away…but something’s missing. She isn’t sure what until she returns to Cape Harbor, her favorite home away from home. There, she crosses paths with an old love, Graham. Rennie’s drawn to him but senses their paths in life have wandered too far apart.

Graham Chamberlain has returned to Cape Harbor to care for his brother, the town alcoholic. Managing and serving drinks at his family’s bar, Graham can’t believe how mundane his life has become. He’s resigned himself to living for others, his own desires for adventure and romance taking a back seat to running the family business - until Rennie walks through his door.

Graham feels the weight of his small-town life; Rennie has a boyfriend and a busy life in the city. But neither can deny the rekindled spark between them. Will they find their way back to one another?

Until Then

Oh my goodness, I was waiting for this one since I read the first Cape Harbor book. Rennie came back to Cape Harbor after being gone for 15 years and ran into Graham. He was her best friend in high school and college and her first for so much but they drifted apart. He didn't realize she was so close in Seattle. Rennie is a lawyer and seemingly has it all but what she really wants is true love. Graham has his home and business but no love and he really just wants Rennie. Could this be their time? This was a great second chance/opposites attract and all around cozy story. I did shed a few tears for them at one point but glad they figured it out. Definitely recommend this one!

Sucks you in and warms your heart

I love this series so far. McLaughlin puts so much warmth and heart into her books. There are moments in this book where you can't help but smile with your characters, and then there are times you just want to cry for or with the characters. I hope there will be a book three in the near future as I want to know more about some of the characters in the series. If you want a heart warming small town feel romance, check out this series.

Waiting on book 3!!

I loved the continuation of the cape harbor friends… need to know Grady’s story now!!! I’m waitingggg….🤭
