Review

Two childhood sweethearts find each other after rough waters. The serene small town of Pelican Crossing marks the perfect metaphor for their second chance love.

The protagonists are thoroughly likeable. They are the older people you wish had a happy ever after, the kind you wanted as parents and grandparents. The years have erased the drama of youth and left them with the maturity and peace that makes for a stable romance. That doesn’t mean that it lacks passion or drama. It just has enough warmth to help you believe the couple will still be holding hands for years and years to come.

Author Bio –

After a career in education, Maggie Christensen began writing contemporary women’s fiction portraying mature women facing life-changing situations, and historical fiction set in her native Scotland. Her travels inspire her writing, be it her trips to visit family in Scotland, in Oregon, USA or her home on Queensland’s beautiful Sunshine Coast. Maggie writes of mature heroines coming to terms with changes in their lives and the heroes worthy of them. Maggie has been called the queen of mature age fiction and her writing has been described by one reviewer as like a nice warm cup of tea. It is warm, nourishing, comforting and embracing.

From the small town in Scotland where she grew up, Maggie was lured to Australia by the call to ‘Come and teach in the sun’. Once there, she worked as a primary school teacher, university lecturer and in educational management. Now living with her husband of over thirty years on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, she loves walking on the deserted beach in the early mornings and having coffee by the river on weekends. Her days are spent surrounded by books, either reading or writing them – her idea of heaven!
