Joy Comes in the Morning

by Alice M. Ray

Terry Rutherford was a top-of-the-charts singer, landing hits in the country, pop, and southern gospel fields—and the love of Starla’s life. But when he is killed in a car accident, she is left saying “What Now?” Trying to rebuild her life, Starla begins showing her Chows. She meets Larry Morgan at a dog show, a flawlessly handsome man who eerily reminds her of Terry. Torn between loyalty to her late husband and wanting to move on with her life, she has issues with separating Terry’s memory from the here-and-now Larry. Even more questions about her late husband and new lover arise as Starla’s kidnapping sets the final stage.
