The Way We Were
by Maeve Haran
Love can be full of surprises.
Rachel is a promising A-level student – until she falls for sexy, dangerous Marko; Mr Darcy with a nose stud.
Her mother, Catherine, is trying to be a good parent and work colleague – but wishes the attentions of her attractive boss didn’t suddenly seeming so alluring.
Grandmother Lavinia is certain of her values, protecting the country village she loves from change – until the return of a long-lost love reminds her that life moves on, for people as well as places. Is it too late for Lavinia to embrace change and find happiness?
After all these years – and a lifetime divided by convention – could they really throw other people’s expectations to the wind and be the way they were?
