Synopsis

In the rugged Ozarks of beautiful Branson, Missouri, a woman struggles to save her marriage-and finds answers from an unexpected source . . . Allison felt like she'd stepped into a fairy tale when she married widower Burke Caldwell. But after less than a year of marriage, he's become removed and distant. His friends see Allison as little more than a trophy wife, his only daughter regards her as the enemy. With everyone so devoted to the memory of Burke's first wife, Kate, how can Allison possibly compete? Then a harrowing car crash leaves Burke badly injured. But it becomes achingly clear that the woman Burke wants by his side is the wife he lost . . . No longer able to dismiss the power Kate still holds, Allison can't resist reading a trove of hidden letters from Kate to Burke. What she discovers sets her mind reeling. The letters give Allison an enlightening window into her husband's heart. But will she have the courage to put aside her own fears, and grab hold of a love as big and bold as the man she once dared to marry?

You know the saying about not judging a book by its cover? Maybe we should also add “Don’t judge a book by its title” because OMG this book was NOTHING like what I was expecting.

I loved reading Janet Dailey growing up. I remember her Americana series, where every state had a story. Obviously, I picked these up during a reprint, because I certainly wasn’t reading romance, or even reading for that matter, at the time they were published. I probably would be disappointed rerea......more

She overhears the guests as they criticize her party, her redecorating, and her marriage. She is constantly being compared......more
