All Roads Lead Home: A Friend or Two / Reflections of Yesterday
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A Friend or Two, available in ebook for the first time, and Reflections of Yesterday, two of Debbie Macomber’s classic novels that explore the power of hope and forgiveness available in one book.
A Friend or Two: Elizabeth Wainwright, an East Coast heiress, moves to San Francisco and takes a job at a Fisherman’s Wharf café, eager to live a simpler life and separate herself from her wealthy background. There, she meets Andrew Breed, a handsome, mysterious, and charismatic customer who claims to be a longshoreman. As she gets to know him, however, Breed’s words and actions don’t quite add up—is Elizabeth falling in love with someone who’s pretending to be something he’s not?
Reflections of Yesterday: Twelve years have passed since Angie Robinson fled her hometown of Groves Point, South Carolina, with ten thousand dollars and a broken heart. She knows Simon Canfield still lives there. His powerful family practically owns the town. Now she’s back, if only to return the money Simon’s mother paid her to leave. For too long Angie has lived with her regrets, her mistakes, and her suffering. If there’s forgiveness to be had, the time has come.

Sometimes it's nice to have a simple romance to read. Macomber includes two updated books 1) A Friend or Two and 2) Reflections of Yesterday in this edition. While predictable, both were entertaining enough to keep my attention.

It had been at least twenty years since I read Debbie Macomber, and, after reading "A Friend or Two", I have no idea why!!! Enjoyed the story. Enjoyed the characters. Thank you, Goodreads, for the chance to win a Giveaway and become reacquainted with this writer.

I chose this rating because the book kept me reading when it was time to stop. The story was so engaging I didn't want to put it down.

You can tell that these 2 stories were her earlier works. Her writing has so much more depth now. But, still a nice relaxing read.
