Remember the Time

May 15, 1997
Michael Fitzgerald and Paul Armstrong agree not to let a girl get in the way of their friendship, but that was before Kate Moran walked into their high school class. Both Michael and Paul fall in love with her, but it is Paul she marries, while Mike remains "just a friend." When Paul tragically dies, Mike begins to move his relationship with Kate from friend to lover. Hidden scars, hidden pain, hidden betrayals--all play a role in the plot. Reynolds has a crisp, clean writing style enlivened by occasional touches of poetic grace that suit her story. This is Reynolds's first book. She lives in Tacoma, Washington. (JC)
