After attending culinary school in Paris, she began working under one of the best chefs in the business and fell in love. Life was perfect, or so she thought.<br \/>\nWhen her parents ask her to come home for the holidays, she decides to take a much-deserved vacation with support and encouragement of her boss.<br \/>\nFive years away does something to you. It messes with your memory and makes you believe that you don\u2019t miss the things that you do. You don\u2019t realize it until it&#8217;s too late.<br \/>\nWhen Kaitlyn unexpectedly runs into Eli Baker, the one she left behind, all bets are off. Promises are forgotten. What ifs roar to life, and what seemed like a dream soon becomes a nightmare.<br \/>\nDoes absence really make the heart grow fonder? How much are you willing to give up for true love?<\/p>\n<p>***Home for the Holidays is included in this book. This is the continuation of Eli and Kaitlyn&#8217;s story.***<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6166\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png?resize=113%2C51\" alt=\"\" width=\"113\" height=\"51\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/44442840-sands-of-time?ac=1&amp;from_search=true\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6156\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png?resize=158%2C45\" alt=\"\" width=\"158\" height=\"45\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Heather-DAgostino\/e\/B00GHMH0LM?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&amp;qid=1554649338&amp;sr=8-1\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/angies-review.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6154\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/angies-review.png?resize=230%2C50\" alt=\"\" width=\"230\" height=\"50\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I received this book from the author for an honest review.<\/p>\n<p>Oh Eli!!&nbsp; I have waited and waited for your book.&nbsp; I loved getting to see the man whore FINALLY getting his girl.&nbsp; Home for the Holidays was just a tease novella for me.<\/p>\n<p>Kait and Eli have been through so much in the novella and now, the when the story picks up in this book, it just gets even harder for their HEA.&nbsp; So many issues they have to deal with and overcome.<\/p>\n<p>Kait and Eli need to rediscover who they once were and who they are now plus deal with the issues of her leaving and marrying another man.&nbsp; Eli needs to tell Kait the truth about the man he was when she wasn\u2019t around because those actions cause issue for them in the novel.<\/p>\n<p>Eli makes huge grand gestures to prove to Kait he is the one for her and she is the one for him They both need to see the other for who the are and what they need to do to finally secure their happy life.<\/p>\n<p>The epilogue made my heart happy.
