As the nephew of the town drunk, Royce
Spaulding was always looked down on in his hometown. His
best friend, and then lover, Caden Foster was the only one
who thought he had potential. Unfortunately, when Caden’s
influential father discovered the truth, he forced his son
to make a choice—and Caden didn’t choose Royce. Now Royce
is back in town for his uncle’s funeral. All he wants to do
is get his uncle buried and leave.
For years, Caden has missed Royce and
bitterly regretted his choices. Although he’s about to be
engaged and is running for mayor, he’s not happy. When he
hears Royce is back in town, he wonders if maybe this is his
second chance. Has love come back around for Royce and
Caden, or will they repeat the mistakes of the past?
When Love Comes Back Around features a story
that ought to be melodramatic and clichéd (and in a way it
is), but it was so darned likeable I couldn’t help but enjoy
it. Royce makes the perfect betrayed but forgiving former
flame. Caden is full of regrets but finally ready to make
things right. The villains were cruel and power-hungry, the
conflict is emotional, and the storyline is like a really
cool soap opera. I liked the snippets of the past
interspersed in the story. They made the quick resolution a
bit more believable. While When Love Comes Back
Around isn’t a surprising tale, it’s fun and
enjoyable. |
