Description from the publisher:
Nothing is as it seems in calm,
quaint Legley Bay.
Famous novelist, Constance Mansfield lived a seemingly straightforward—if private—and somewhat predictable life. Friends, beloved daughter Sutton, a beautiful home, and all the success an author could wish for. A perfect life…but was it?
When a hit and run accident suddenly takes her mother’s life, Sutton finds hidden secrets with her heartbreak. Emotional walls she assumed Constance had built to protect her privacy may have been to protect something—or someone—else entirely.
Family and friends return home for support, including her own lost-love, Declan. He’s the first thing she craves to help her cope with her loss and the questions she’s left with, but he’s also the last person she wants to see. Will he be able to put down roots at last? Can the loss of true love be the making of a life or is it destined to be the undoing of everything?
When money, power and love combine across time, anything is possible.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TEA AND PRIMROSES is the second book
in the Legley Bay series. Each will stand on its own, but I strongly
recommend reading both of stories that have been released thus far. I have enjoyed them.
A romantic suspense that spans a
lifetime, Sutton’s lifetime, it is written in the present and in the last
manuscript of her mother. I loved the
way that they story switches from Sutton and Declan’s present to Constance and
Peter’s past. I loved the emphasis that
life is a circle and loss will be recovered.
I was completely engrossed in this story of second chances, family, friendships,
relationships, loves, losses, tragedies, and emotions.
This is more than a murder
mystery. It is a life lesson, a reminder
of true love’s joys and sacrifices. It
is second-chance romances and “it’s never too late to live your dreams.” It’s every good wish we have for each other
and should have for ourselves. This is
why when Tess Thompson has another book available; I will want to read it.
Narration: S.L. Crawley is an
extremely talented narrator. I love
listening to her. She does pronounce a
few words differently than I, but that could be regional (e.g. stifle and
Adirondack).
Note: While I received this book as a gifted audiobook
