There, not six feet away, stood Cameron Hathaway He looked
wonderful, dammit Healthy Strong. His skin was vibrant and tanned, his rich
brown hair shining with sunlight And his face--oh, that face whose every
feature she'd once adored! Time had added a few lines. but so much
character.
It suddenly occurred to Lauren that she was staring. For the life of her she
couldn't think of anything to say. What did you say to the man who'd been
not only your first love, but your first lover, as well?
What did you say to someone who'd accidentally gotten you pregnant'1 What
could you say when everything between you had ended so badly? Hi, how are
you? didn't cut it "How are you?" Cameron asked.
Lauren snapped to, annoyed that he'd spoken first
"Great And you?"
He gave a cynical little laugh.
"I'd be better if I knew what the hell you were doing here." Here. Back
home. Back on Harmony Gathering her composure, lauren replied,
"I'm sure you would be."
"I hear you're looking at property That right?"
She kept her gaze cool and steady.
"My, how rumor flies here. I guess some things never change."
 
Dear Reader, Lauren continues the CIRCLE OF FRIENDS series about a group of
people who grew up together on a small fictional island called Harmony,
located off the coast of Massachusetts.
In Julia (published in November 1998) we met Julia Lewis, a successful radio
deejay who returned to Harmony to attend her best friend's funeral, became
entangled in a murder investigation and as a bonus found love and a reason to
stay (aka Ben Grant, the newspaper editor).
In Lauren, property investor Lauren DeStefano also believes her return to
Harmony will be temporary. After all, the only thing she needs to do there
is buy her mother's Christmas present a house. But, alas, her fate will be
similar to Julia's. She falls in love! How Lauren arrives at that fate,
however, is quite a different story from her friend's, one that departs from
the realism of a homicide case and enters the high romance of legend, first
love timeless love, stories of ghosts and ghost ships, historic houses.
I really loved playing with these elements, especially when it occurred to me
that Lauren will be coming out at the turn of the millennium. What better
way to step into a new epoch, I thought, than by telling a story that centers
so much on time?
I hope you'll enjoy reading Lauren and that you'll look for Cathryn
approximately a year from now. (Each book is a self-contained story. ) May
this special holiday season usher in for you an epoch of joy, peace and love.
