Publisher's summary

From New York Times bestselling author Heidi McLaughlin comes an uplifting story about two old friends finding new love.

Rennie Wallace has it all: a boyfriend, a good job, a best friend who lives a stone’s throw away…but something’s missing. She isn’t sure what until she returns to Cape Harbor, her favorite home away from home. There, she crosses paths with an old love, Graham. Rennie’s drawn to him but senses their paths in life have wandered too far apart.

Graham Chamberlain has returned to Cape Harbor to care for his brother, the town alcoholic. Managing and serving drinks at his family’s bar, Graham can’t believe how mundane his life has become. He’s resigned himself to living for others, his own desires for adventure and romance taking a back seat to running the family business - until Rennie walks through his door.

Graham feels the weight of his small-town life; Rennie has a boyfriend and a busy life in the city. But neither can deny the rekindled spark between them. Will they find their way back to one another?

Sucks you in and warms your heart

I love this series so far. McLaughlin puts so much warmth and heart into her books. There are moments in this book where you can't help but smile with your characters, and then there are times you just want to cry for or with the characters. I hope there will be a book three in the near future as I want to know more about some of the characters in the series. If you want a heart warming small town feel romance, check out this series.

Until Then

Oh my goodness, I was waiting for this one since I read the first Cape Harbor book. Rennie came back to Cape Harbor after being gone for 15 years and ran into Graham. He was her best friend in high school and college and her first for so much but they drifted apart. He didn't realize she was so close in Seattle. Rennie is a lawyer and seemingly has it all but what she really wants is true love. Graham has his home and business but no love and he really just wants Rennie. Could this be their time? This was a great second chance/opposites attract and all around cozy story. I did shed a few tears for them at one point but glad they figured it out. Definitely recommend this one!

Worth the Wait. Great Listen

Warning!!! Until Then may result in a book hangover. I finished this book more than 24 hours ago but feared writing the review would take away the bliss, the satisfaction, the extreme pleasure I felt from reading Until Then. I want to remain in the Zen moment but I also want others to get excited about reading this amazing story. I have waited for Graham's story and it was worth every day, every minute I have waited.

I have waited because Graham deserves a happily ever after. Graham has earned a happily ever after. Graham deserves a life, a better life than what he has been living. Graham gave up his life, his dreams, his love over fifteen years ago in order to support his family. His twin, Grady, survived a tragic boat wreck but the town's perfect son did not. Graham now serves the alcohol at The Whale Spout that is brother drowns his sorrows.

I couldn't help it. I had to read it again. Best decision ever!!!

The author created a beautiful second chance romance that grabbed me from the very beginning. My heart bled for Graham as he struggled to be what his parents needed, leaving himself behind. I cried for his lonely heart, hoping he would find love again. I swooned over Graham when he realized his first love, was his only love.

Graham's journey to Rennie was filled with obstacles. Let's face it anything worth having shouldn't come easy, you should have to work for it. The author made them both work for their happily ever after. She created a world that the reader can escape within. The scenery is that vacation you always wanted but just couldn't find. The memories of their past had the reader belonging. What could be better than being part of the story?

Sweet Story

This was a sweet story and only one time did I say it doesn't happen like that but it's just a book. I have really enjoyed this series and these characters!

Until then by Heidi McLaughlin

To much dirty language that a Christian wouldn’t listen to plus sexual content. Not something I would recommend

Intriguing title

The story is overbearing, with too much descriptive narration that develops too slowly. Needs more active dialogue between the characters. Although the title was intriguing, the story fell short. I couldn't finish the story.
