The Bloom girls

The Bloom girls

A. J. Pine

Book - 2021

"A charming, funny, and utterly engaging mother-daughter story that celebrates family, second chances, and falling love. Gabi Bloom doesn't believe in signs. She believes in photographic evidence, the view through her camera lens, and the snap of the shutter. It's why she traveled to Europe--to satisfy her wanderlust and to kick off her photography career. But in Ireland, all of that changed when Gabi gazed into the impossibly blue eyes of an American bartender. She wasn't prepared for their intense and immediate attraction, or the fact that she'd be bringing Ethan home with her...as her fianč. Gabi's upcoming marriage is the cherry on top of her mother's current predicament. Stumbling toward forty, Aliss...a is a pastry chef who raised her daughter single-handedly while Gabi's father traveled the globe. Now her baby girl is getting married after a whirlwind romance and Alissa--well, Alissa is pregnant. Again. And not only is her ex the father, he wants her back. For good. Until she can figure out that part of the puzzle, Alissa is hiding her big little secret even as she helps Gabi plan a happily-ever-after wedding. But somewhere between disaster and hope, life might just bloom in a way that is breathtakingly unexpected"--Page [4] of cover.

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

A young woman reevaluates her future as her parents face the possibility of starting over at 40 in this endearing romance from Pine (Only a Cowboy Will Do, written as A.J. Pine). Twenty-two-year-old Gabi Bloom grew up well cared for by both her parents--but having had her as teenagers, their love for each other wasn't enough to keep them together, and they divorced when Gabi was four. Gabi's mother, Alissa, put her dreams on hold to raise her daughter while encouraging Gabi's father, Matthew, to travel the world, not wanting to hold him back. Having watched their dysfunctional dynamic, Gabi resolved never to marry--that is, until she meets the charming Ethan on a two-month trip to Europe. It's a shock when Gabi returns from Europe with a fiancé in tow, but even more surprising is when, that same day, Alissa discovers she's pregnant with Matthew's child yet again following a nostalgic one-night stand. Matthew's excited at the chance to start over with Alissa, but she's afraid to trust he'll stay. As both generations navigate complicated matters of the heart, the wonderfully flawed heroines come to realize that change is possible at any age if they just let go of fear. The result is sure to win over readers. Agent: Emily Kim, Prospect Agency. (Aug.)
