May the circle be unbroken

They'd been friends growing up on the small East Coast island of Harmony Julia, Lauren and Cathryn, Amber and the others. Now one of them is dead, and Julia Lewis goes home for the first time in seven years.

She plans to remodel it in time for Christmas and gets more than she bargained for. More expenses, more problems more memories. All of which she figures she can handle. But discovering she still has feelings for Cameron? That's something else. Can the past repeat itself with a different and happier ending? With marriage to Cam, a home on Harmony and a baby?
