Success. Money. A glamorous life. Blue Reynolds, daytime-TV’s reigning queen, has all of that, and a shameful secret too. One that, if revealed, could ruin both her image and her career, leaving her stripped of purpose and identity. When she was very young—when she was Harmony Blue Kucharski—she had an illegitimate child she couldn’t support. Though she hated herself for doing it, she gave him up.
Despite her success, or perhaps because of it, Blue is forever haunted by the decision and by the past she’d been running from at the time, a past featuring Mitch Forrester, who has suddenly reappeared in her life. In Key West, as she conducts her TV show on-location, as the investigator she’s hired closes in on finding her son, as she finds herself entangled with Mitch’s ambitions and Mitch’s enigmatic son, Julian, who is a war journalist with a troubling past of his own, Blue will come to an impasse. Which life does she want? Which does she deserve? What does she owe her son, and herself?
In Therese Fowler’s Reunion, serendipity and scandal collide to produce a passionate, illuminating story about love and its power to transform regrets into new beginnings.
“I have to say up front that if someone had briefly described this book to me — famous celebrity talk show host, secrets, old flame, etc. — I’d be expecting a glib, shallow, formulaic story that would feel like a tired retread. Which makes it all the sweeter to be able to say: I loved this book! Following the success of her debut novel, SOUVENIR, Therese Fowler infuses her characters with life, layering them until they could step off the page. She handles the search for Blue’s son with a subtle hand, penning the perfect concluding chapter to that thread. Plot points that readers may predict far in advance are totally different from expected (and much better for it). Beautifully written and full of heart, REUNION is a satisfying tale perfect for a weekend escape from real life.” ~Bookreporter.com
This is a multi-layered story… I felt fully involved in every step of this heroine’s journey and wanted nothing more than for her to find true happiness. And in turn, to find herself and her place in the world. Poignant and tender, REUNION is a true heart-warmer! ~Kay James
