Joanna returns to a small Missouri town for her high school reunion and comes face to face with Pete, the love of her life. A college professor in Tennessee, she has never married and Pete, a prosperous farmer, is now a widower with five children. Their attraction is as strong as it was on graduation night when Pete was leaving for boot camp. He never knew that Joanna had his child and gave her up for adoption. And Joanna doesn't know that her baby girl, Beth, is now married and has begun a search for her birth parents. Will Beth find what she is looking for? And will Pete and Joanna, despite their diverse lives, rediscover a love that has come full circle?
I like Linda Swift's writing because she is so in touch with every day people and situations. Her plots are real life experiences that readers can identify with. I wanted to read this one because I've lived in the Memphis area. She really made me think back to my high school crush and the "what could have beens." This is southern romance--people and their lives written in a way I understand and concur with. Linda is a gentle writer-I always enjoy her stories.
