Until Harry

Started and finished this book today. This has a lot of the things I love in a romance novel. Unrequited love that fights to be requited. Characters that struggle with themselves and life's obstacles to discover you who they are, and who they have always been. Set in an old small town in England. Perfect setting for a nice romance.

I loved reading about Lane's family and I appreciated that the author showed how blind Lane was to the support that she's always had in her family. Most of the time (like with “The Wall of Winnipeg and Me”) I like the fact that a romance novel focuses on the two main characters the story centers around. However, the author, L.A. Casey, made Lane's loving family members into people I wanted to know more about. Death and grieving were also a very prominent theme in this book, way more than I anticipated (there were some tears...okay, a lot of tears.) It was handled very well and I liked that we got to know some of the characters that passed in flashback chapters. The deaths brought the already close family together and Lane was able to start the process of dealing with everything that she'd been running away from.

I really enjoyed the story and the characters most of all and I hope to read more by this author soon.
