Synopsis

October 1918: En route from New York to Seattle, Jessica Layton stops for a visit in her hometown of Powell Springs, Oregon, and comes face-to-face with Cole Braddock, her first and only love from years ago. Now Jessica is a highly accomplished clinical physician preparing for an exciting new job in Washington, and Cole is a successful horse breeder who is courting her sister Amy. Both are convinced they have moved beyond their youthful passion and the heartbreak it produced; nonetheless, they are grateful that Jessica’s brief visit will leave little opportunity to rehash old wounds. But before Dr. Layton can leave town, Powell Springs is hit hard by the influenza epidemic ravaging the country. With no other doctors available, Jessica must remain in Oregon and tend to her friends and former neighbors. Her work brings her in constant contact with Cole, and with each passing day he finds it harder to convince himself that mild-tempered Amy can fill his heart as Jessica once did. Set against the gritty backdrop of World War I and the epidemic of 1918, Home by Morning is a raw, compelling story of betrayal, heartbreak, and redemption.

4- Avevo da un po' questo libro nell'ereader, mi aveva colpito la trama, con un'ambientazione diversa dal solito, con una protagonista medico in America durante la prima guerra mondiale, ma non mi aspettavo, iniziando la lettura, di imbattermi nell'epidemia d'influenza che ricorda molto quella che ab......more

Goodreads review by Kathleen on October 08, 2012

Ms. Harrington is good at several things. Most of the time she shows the right amount of historical detail to take us to this place and time. The backdrop of war and epidemic and villains are enough to keep us turning pages through much of the book. Harrington does love/sex scenes well. Her writing......more
