Anna was so bitter when she came back to Shady Pines after her mother died. Luke had a crush on her when they were teens, but he was never able to tell her before she ran away from home. This story was about missed chances and misunderstandings. There was also a mystery to solve with a photo in a box of figurines her mother left her.
I really like Shady Piers, Maine and its wonderful characters. This was a sweet and wholesome story of a girl named Anna, who returned home to Shady Piers for her estranged mother’s funeral. I liked how Anna found herself, discovered who her mother was and found love and closure. She also learned to live with honesty and not regret. She certainly found more than she ever dreamed. I received an advance copy of this book and I willingly chose to write an honest review.
Old Flames is in Shady Piers, a town populated with caring, helpful, believable characters. These are clean romances and I love them. Anna has to deal with her mother’s death, a clue to her father’s identity and an old flame. The book illustrates how much better things could be if we could openly communicate. I thoroughly enjoyed this book.
Old Flames is a short, sweet, Shady Piers Novella that can also be read as a delightful stand-alone book. When Anna returns to Shady Piers for the first time since she left many years ago it is to settle her late mother’s estate. This is a lovely story of old friends, secrets and possible answers and I definitely recommend it. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Shady Piers is an almost magical little town. Love blooms unexpectedly, souls are soothed, dreams come true. Each installment in the series is a sweet, clean romance with likable, believable people, an HEA every time. I’ve loved every book, finishing each one with a happy smile and a sigh.

I really enjoy these Shady Piers stories! It is a town I would love to explore. Anna ran away years ago only to return when her mother passed. She never knew her father and was trying to figure out if the picture she found was her father and his identity. Fascinating story with clean romance and a bit of mystery!
