Charming Chapter (Boomer Babes Book Club Romances) by Lori Haas – Review by Carrie Reed

Charming Chapter : A Later-in-Life Just Kisses Romance by Lori Haas
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I wasn’t sure how I was going to feel about this going in, but quickly became engrossed. First off, this book really got me thinking about my relationship with my own mother, to just spend time with her, and enjoy her. I love that Laura at 60, and after losing her husband was motivated by her book group friends to make the leap and travel on her own to London. I was super annoyed with her daughter Caroline for most of the book. It irked me so much that she just assumed her mom would be there to take care of the things she needed help with, and I applaud Laura for standing up to her daughter and doing something for herself finally, for living for herself. I had a feeling something was off about Hugh the whole time, but didn’t see that coming. The fact that it took him so long to come clean to Laura after she found out bothered me, but I feel like they did have a connection and a strong love. It was sweet that Laura got to explore London and look into her ancestry with her Mother and Daughter, as well as learning life lessons from her own Mother, Celeste, and bestowing some truths on Caroline. I would really love to see what comes of Laura and Hugh.
