Circle of Friends

Sometimes the only way to embrace tomorrow
is to let go of the past.

Architect Nick Sinclair has just received the commission of a lifetime. Designing the new regional arts center is a plum job that could launch his firm into the big time. There’s just one catch. The arts center board wants a no-name landscaping company to design the grounds.

Landscaper Laura Taylor has poured blood, sweat, and tears into establishing her business, and she’s determined to succeed when she’s tapped to handle the arts center job. As she works to prove to Nick that she’s up to the task, sparks begin to fly—but a past trauma has convinced her that playing it safe with her heart is the wise course.

Nick has no trouble picking up Laura’s keep-your-distance signals, but as he gets to know her, his usual no-strings, play-the-field style becomes less and less appealing. In fact, she makes him long for a wife, family, and white-picket-fence life. But can he convince her to take a second chance on love?

In A Place to Call Home, bestselling author Irene Hannon delivers a sweet, touching story about two people overcoming a legacy of shattered trust and finding their own happily ever after.
