Synopsis

Can the good old-fashioned warmth of a rural small town make a broken family whole? New York Times bestselling author Janet Dailey explores the healing power of love and the enduring allure of the drive-in movie theater in the latest novel in her New Americana series …

Kelly Jenkins heads to bucolic Blue Moon Haven, Alabama, believing a new life will heal the two abandoned children in her care. Signing on to revive the drive-in theater seems like a worthy venture, until she discovers the property is in deep
disrepair. Still, spurred on by the elderly owner’s plea, Kelly takes on the renovation, beginning with an ancient tree that needs to come down—and unexpectedly bringing on the wrath of her reclusive neighbor …

Seeing Kelly take an ax to his little girl’s favorite tree is like being struck in the heart—whatever heart Seth Morgan has left after losing his daughter. With his own attempt to buy the old drive-in thwarted, Seth reluctantly steps in to help
Kelly, even offering her and her kids shelter in his home, a place that hasn’t seen a woman’s touch—or a child’s joyful laughter—in far too long …

Soon everyone is bound up in the fate of Blue Moon’s drive-in—and the new family taking root in town. Because it looks like the love blooming between Kelly and Seth just may rival any found on the silver screen …

Goodreads review by Sue on May 04, 2023

This is a typical romance - boy meets girl, both have past baggage that keeps them apart, problems are resolved and they live happily ever after. That said, if you enjoy romance novels, this is one step above because of the characters. Kelly is a sweet girl who is in over her head after taking custo......more

Goodreads review by Diana on May 16, 2023

Even though this has typical romance themes, I really liked this book. The setting is fantastic. Who wouldn't like a romance over fixing up an old drive-in movie theater. The characters really got to my heart. Kelley took in her best friend's children after she died and her husband left. The kids rel......more

Goodreads review by Charley on August 25, 2024

My first book by this author was a giveaway book. It was generally an easy, pleasant read. But there was one, for me, huge gapping hole in the story that was so frustrating. It certainly was a tear jerker. Only a 3.5 for me.......more
