Jake Barrett is devastated when he loses his wife and toddler son in a terrible, fiery accident. What made it even more painful is that an unidentified man was found in the car with them. The police suggest that his wife was having an affair. Since that horrible day two years ago, Jake has questioned everything about himself and his marriage and found no answers. He returns home to his family’s Texas ranch to try to find healing there and maybe learn to trust again.

Twice, Honor McKee was engaged to be married, and twice, she was stood up just days before the wedding. Adding to her embarrassment is the fact that she is a marriage counselor, someone who gives advice to others about love and relationships. Ashamed and deeply hurt, she loses faith in herself and her ability to choose a man willing to commit.

Although they are both wounded and disappointed in love, Jake and Honor meet and manage to stumble their way toward friendship and, quite possibly, more. But their lives are turned upside down when trust in each other is needed the most, and neither has it to give.

Will they learn that there is more to life than living in past failures, that it really is possible to find love again?

My Thoughts:

Love, Again was just the story I needed to read. It is a lovely and wholesome romance about two people who have been hurt in their lives and cautiously begin first a friendship that both secretly hope will blossom into a relationship that will end with wedding bells.

Honor has now been left at the altar twice. As a family and marriage counselor that is not really helping her career. Her friends, stand in parents, and the townsfolks love her anyway. She is a woman who gives of herself tirelessly as she genuinely wants to see others happy. In a way I think it helps her not think of her lonely life and the problems she has experienced.

Jake is still reeling from the loss of his wife and son and the secrets that have died with them. The loss of his little boy has cut him to his core and the questions that surround his wife's fidelity make him gun shy when it comes to another relationship. However, Honor is different and he can't help himself but to fall in love with her.

Honor has loved Jake for a long time. He was her first crush, even though he doesn't even remember her. But she is heart sore as well. What if she falls deeper for Jake only to have him leave her as well? I enjoyed their friendship and courtship and how it unfolded even with the obstacles that came there way. This was a very sweet romance of two people trying to navigate life and what it has thrown at them.

When I thought of writing “Love, Again”, I wanted to find out what would happen between two very-hurt people who stumbled into the beginnings of a friendship but didn’t have the trust it took for the relationship to go any further. What would help them see their flaws? What did they need to learn to become more than the past had let them be?

I loved getting to know Jake and Honor. Without giving anything away, I walked with them through their discoveries about themselves and each other. I hope you enjoy their journey!
