The third book in the 'Swansea Girls and Swansea Summer' series, it follows the four main characters as they get married and the tails of having and adopting their first children. Its an excellent book, but you might need to buy the first two books to fully understand ther characters.

The last of the trilogy titled Swansea Girls Swansea Summer and now Homecoming.. I have loved all three books which describe the story of the journey LIly, Helen, Judy and Katie make through teens to motherhood. There is sadness, happiness, love, hate and despair in this well written story. The characters are warm and caring and not too good. Very true to life. For me the real test of a book or set of books is the sense of regret I feel when I finish reading them. I certainly don't want to say goodbye to these girls and am sorry that unlike Ms Colliers other series this is only a trilogy. Recommended to anyone who likes family stories

What a great book! It was a excellent end to the series. If you like Catrin Collier you'll love this. If you haven't read the first two books of this series (Swansea Girls and Swansea Summer) read them first. They are a great read.
