Savannah is the owner of a party planning business called Life
Celebrations. Even though Savannah has lost both of her parents as a
teenager, she tries to create and foster a positive life for herself.
She surrounds herself with friends and coworkers that she treats like
family. While Savannah is happy with her life, she yearns to have a
family of her own. However, she is afraid of getting sick and leaving
her kids without a mother.
Savannah's mom, Deirdre Rose
continues to watch over Savannah. Deirdre leaves "gifts" of dragonflies
to let her Savannah know she is being watched over.
Ben is a good looking talented recording artist that is looking for more in life. He is famous but, he
constantly feels lonely. He fears trusting people because very few
people want to know the real him. He feels that most people just want
something from him.
However, when Savannah and Ben cross paths at a yoga retreat, they feel drawn to each other. They
feel a bond that they never felt before. Savannah wants to know the
real him and Ben appreciates and understands Savannah's past. But, when
their retreat is over, what will become of their relationship?
I
thought the novel had an interesting concept of a mother/aunt looking
over their child. However, I felt like the novel was moving very slowly.
The characters were interesting but, I
couldn't stay interested in the novel. If you like cozy romance with
elements of magical realism, then this is the book for you.

Dragonflies at Night:
More Than a Love Story
By Anne Marie Bennett

A dragonfly brings a mother’s love to a grieving daughter.
Meet Savannah, the thirty-something owner of Life Celebrations, a party planning business. Despite losing both parents as a teenager, Savannah is creating a positive life for herself, surrounded by friends and co-workers who are now her family. But she also has a secret—as much as she wants to settle down and have children, she is afraid to, for fear of getting cancer and having to leave them without their mother, as she herself was left behind years ago.
Meet Deirdre Rose, Savannah’s mother. She continues to watch over Savannah, who feels deeply connected to her mother whenever she sees a dragonfly.
Now meet Ben, a thirty-something recording artist who is good-looking, talented, and a household name. Despite his fame, Ben is lonely. He trusts few people because it seems everyone wants something from him instead of getting to know who he really is.
Savannah and Ben cross paths when they meet at a yoga retreat in the Massachusetts Berkshires. They are drawn to each other’s creativity and outlook on life. She sees beyond his celebrity and he admires her strength in what she’s had to overcome.
What happens when the retreat ends and they go their separate ways? Will they be able to make a long distance relationship work? Can Savannah put aside her fears, and will Ben allow himself to be truly vulnerable?
Above all . . . what message do Deirdre Rose and Dragonfly have for both of them?
