She thought she had to leave her hometown to continue living but she essentially stopped living the moment she left. Quinn threw herself into her career after leaving Kingsford. While Sawyer was always Quinn’s safe place, Quinn gives Sawyer strength to make some much needed changes in her life. Seeing Quinn again, Sawyer realizes that the feelings she had as a teenager never really went away. She works long hours at the antique store, while her brother saunters in in the middle of the day and could care less about making it a success.
She works with her brother despite how irritating and infuriating he is because she feels like her family would want her to do so. She always puts others first, she’s a great friend to Kelly and adores Kelly’s young daughters. I started this book feeling a lot of love for Sawyer. Time and distance hasn’t done anything to change that feeling. For Quinn, Sawyer, was always her safe place. Quinn soon finds herself wanting to be back in Kingsford not only to reconnect with her family but also with Sawyer. Quinn was also in love with Sawyer back in high school and ended their friendship so her family drama didn’t bring Sawyer down. Shane completely disregards Sawyer as a person and worse than that, doesn’t correct Quinn’s assumption that he’s the owner of the house she’s trying to purchase for her client. I have a lot of feelings about Shane and all of them are bad. Sawyer was heartbroken when Quinn not only took a step back from their relationship but also started dating Shane. Kelly is clueless that Sawyer was in love with Quinn back in high school as Sawyer kept that a secret, especially from Quinn. Kelly is shocked to hear from Quinn and begs Sawyer to go with her to meet her at the bowling alley Kelly and her husband own. The house Quinn is sent to Kingsford on behalf of her client who is determined to own it, even though it isn’t for sale. After the death of her grandmother the store was left to Shane, while Sawyer was left with the house. Quinn’s former best friend, Sawyer Kent, still lives in Kingsford where she runs the family antique store with her brother Shane. She had to get away and left Kingsford and everyone there behind. Quinn took over caring for her sister, Kelly, but it was too much. She left Kingsford after her father left town and her mother shut down. When a new client comes along with wants to buy a house located in her hometown, Quinn returns to her hometown with her only objective to finalize the deal and get the hell out of town.
Quinn McKinley left Kingsford, NY seventeen years ago and is now a successful New York City real estate agent.
Back in Your Arms, her latest, is another stellar read and reaffirms Monica’s place as one of the best writers in our community. It can be stressful but brings you a comfort that you didn’t realize you were missing. Reading a Monica McCallan book is like coming home.
