As soon as she got married, Sandi Bradshaw wanted nothing more than to move out of Canyon Springs, Arizona. Then everything changed when her military husband was killed. Now, establishing a veteran's memorial for Keith has brought Sandi and her daughter back to his hometown. And face-to-face with the man who stood in the way of her marriage! Bryce Harding has a lot to prove to this same hometown crowd—and the very stubborn Sandi. But can they embrace the possibility that God might be giving them both a second chance at love?
I'm so glad this book has come out! I read the proposal before it sold and couldn't wait to read the whole thing! I love Glynna's writing. Y'all will love this book!
ReplyDeleteHi Missy:
ReplyDeleteAccording to Kindle I’m 32% into “At Home in His Heart” and I think it’s Glynna’s best book! However, I want to point out that the hero and heroine were not lovers in the past. In fact, they were on hostile terms. They are not getting a ‘second chance’ at love with each other!
This is important because I don’t like stories where the hero and heroine were lovers, then marry other people, and then when the spouses die, they get back together and find true love.
I just hate the idea of my wife finding her true love after I’m dead! : )

LOL, Vince! You're so funny.
ReplyDeleteYou know, I just finished editing a book that will come out in February. In it, the woman's husband (who was sick and dying ) had told her he wanted her to remarry once he was gone. Now, I'm wondering how believable that was!! ;)
But never fear. This my couple was never a couple in the past. He dated my heroine's older sister! :)

ReplyDeleteSo glad you're enjoying it, Vince! You're right, Sandi only met Bryce briefly a few months before the story opens. Guess marketing like the "second chance angle." :)

There is no problem with this at all. Husbands say this all the time and mean it. Of course, they expect the wife to wait a decent interval.

Vince, I'm not sure I could be so generous to my husband!! ;)
ReplyDeleteVince I hear what you say. I tend to not like the ones where they were in love before and something happened.
ReplyDeleteI guess its not I dont like them its just it seems to happen alot.
I know some people who have found love again and others like mum who as far as she was concerned dad was the only man for her. (dont know If I would have liked a new father!)
Cant wait to read this book but it may be a little while till I can get my hands on it.
Hi Ausjenny:
ReplyDeleteI think it depends on how old the wife is when the husband dies. I’m not sure I would want my 61 year old wife to remarry. But a 20 to 40 year old wife, yes I would. Of course, I would expect her to exercise the same fine judgment in selecting a husband which led her to pick me as a husband.
I also agree on re-loves! There are so many people looking for love for the first time, I don’t have a lot of empathy for those who get a second bite at the apple. : )
Then again, if I were a widow or a divorcee, I might really like these books. Fortunately there are enough romances published every month for everyone to get the romance story they like best. (Well, not always: I love the 'beauty and the brain' theme but there is only one of these every few years. : ))

P.S. I envy you your ability to get all those wonderful Medical Romances where you live.
