Christmas Beach Reunion

Christmas Beach #3

by Lori Wilde, Cassidy Grace

Christmas in Christmas Beach was always magical, but for Norah Wells, it was also a reminder of everything she'd lost. After years of keeping her heart closed off, the last thing she expects is for an adorable stray dog to lead her back to Matt Gray, her girlhood best friend and the man she never dared to love.

Now twenty years later and a successful veterinarian, Matt never forgot Norah or the connection they shared. As he prepares for his clinic's big Christmas adoption event, fate brings Norah to his door with a mischievous Irish setter named Paddy in tow.

As they work together to find homes for the shelter animals and a family for Paddy, unspoken feelings finally surface. But Norah's fears of loss and heartbreak threaten to keep her walls up. Can the spirit of Christmas - and a lovable Irish setter with a talent for escape - help these longtime friends discover the love that's always been there?

About the author

Lori Wilde can’t remember a time when she didn’t want to write. She even went to nursing school so she could have a schedule flexible enough to allow her to write on the side. She nursed for 20 years, working in a variety of settings from the newborn nursery to the recovery room, to dialysis. But she never lost her desire to write.

She sold her first book in 1994 to Silhouette Romance but later discovered she had a flair for comedy and branched out to Harlequin Duets and now, to Blaze.

Lori is an adventuresome soul who loves to travel. She’s taken flying lessons, completed two marathons, rode in a hot-air balloon, performed with a professional jazz band, traveled Europe as a teenager, hiked volcanoes in Hawaii, trod on glaciers in Alaska, shot white-water rapids, water-skied, snow-skied, raced all-terrain vehicles, bodysurfed in the Gulf of Mexico, and photographed grizzly bears in Yellowstone.

She lives in her native Texas, with her own real-life hero, Bill.

This is the third book of a trilogy and although the first two were good, this one was great!! If you love dogs, like I do, you will especially love it. I sure did!

Heartwarming Christmas Tail🐶

The character & scenery descriptions capture the warmth of new & old loves. I could not put this book down. I was cheering for the pup & rekindled love!

A second chance romance of a different type, including some great dogs. A long ago friendship revives and becomes a love story.
