Rate this book
Romantic sparks fly when a fiercely independent woman who has cast-iron plans for her life and an eligible bachelor who’s rarely seen without a beautiful lady on his arm, clash in a fateful meeting in this 1950s sweet Southern romance.

Joanna Gardner’s past disturbs her every waking moment. Only her painting soothes her unrest, and there, she submerges herself, shutting out all social interactions. Until Junior Neale enters her life.

When the respected lawyer Junior Neale first meets Joanna, he is rendered almost speechless, and all those other women’s charms fade away. But then he finds out her biggest secret.

Joanna’s past creates a challenging hurdle between them. Can Junior come up with a solution that will bring about their happily ever after?

Jo Huddleston writes sweet Southern romances set in the 1950s, where you can escape into wholesome, faith-based love stories of deep commitment, hope, and happily-ever-after endings.

She likes to laugh with people, but not at people. The beach is her favorite vacation spot. She’s a spectator fan of several sports, with tennis being her favorite. She doesn’t enjoy being in the dark and is fearful of snakes!

Affection is book 4 in the Emotions of the Heart series. It is a very enjoyable read and just as good as the rest of the series.

The book is a rollercoaster of emotions, filled with surprises and heartwarming moments that will resonate with you. The characters are not just names on a page, but real people with complex layers, making their journey a compelling read. As you delve into the story, you'll witness the transformative power of faith, turning life's challenges into blessings. And when you reach the final page, you'll feel like you've made lifelong friends.

I highly recommend this sweet Southern romance. After the first few pages, you will be hooked.

I received a complimentary ARC from the author; a positive review is not required. All opinions are my own.
