"AT LAST is an exciting romantic drama that highlights the destructive side of obsessive love on innocent future generations . . . Barbara Bretton provides her fans with an emotional contemporary tale that hits the guts and heart with its force." Harriet Klausner, Painted Rock "Ms. Bretton takes you on an emotional roller coaster as she guides you through the lives and loves of Idle Point's residents. I was so impressed with her character Gracie that I wondered if I could measure up to her if posed with the same challenges." Rendezvous "Bretton's beautifully crafted tale offers a variation on the plot of Romeo and Juliet that transforms the tragedy into a romance." Patty Engelmann, Booklist "4 1/2 stars - RT Top Pick for November Ms. Bretton takes the star-crossed lovers plot and turns it into her own convincing and distinctive storyline. Ms. Bretton's writing style is wonderfully suited for complex human emotions." Jill M. Smith, Romantic Times "4 stars - a recommended read." Susan Scribner, The Romance Reader

At Last
Barbara Bretton

For generations the old lighthouse had guided sailors home from the sea . .

But will its magic work one more time and guide a lonely man and woman home to love?

From the moment they met as children, there was something special between Noah Chase and Gracie Taylor, something that grew and matured right along with them. Despite Gracie's troubled family - and Noah's cold, distant one - they managed to make each other laugh and keep each other's dreams alive. . .

But Noah's father already had plans for his golden boy's future - plans that did not include the likes of poor, ordinary Gracie Taylor. And when he succeeded in tearing them apart - on the night before their wedding - it seemed those childhood dreams and teenage passions had been crushed by more grown-up things, like sorrows and secrets and lies . . .

Now Gracie has returned to Idle Point, Maine - and so has Noah. Over the years they've wondered if those dreams were just delusions, or if a love like theirs could ever happen again. Maybe they'll find out at last . .
