Forever Kind of Love

 Two wounded souls—an artist and a musician—find love amidst personal struggles.

About the Book:

Devastated by her husband’s arrest for investment fraud, New York photographer Willow Barton flees to her Ohio hometown of Cedar Hill, determined to rebuild her life. But when she’s drawn to her best friend’s brother, Zachary Hayes, a charming country music star, she struggles to resist the chemistry between them, despite seeing him as a player. Adjusting to small-town life proves harder than she expected, and the whispers surrounding her husband’s scandal only intensify her desire to keep her guard up.

As they work together to renovate a garage apartment and her darkroom, hidden desires ignite, but Willow is still dealing with the financial and personal fallout of her marriage. Zach, juggling his rising career and complicated past, finds himself wanting a steadiness he never expected. He knows Willow is the kind of woman who needs commitment, yet he can’t deny the pull he feels toward her.

But when Zach’s ex-girlfriend resurfaces, Willow doubts his intentions, forcing her to confront difficult decisions about trust, forgiveness, and love. With her future hanging in the balance, Willow must decide whether to protect her heart or risk everything for a chance at something real.

 Our Review: In this sweet, second chance at love romance, two people come together with all the baggage of the past, and once they find the one, they strive to overcome past hurts and doubts in order to move on. Another theme looks at the effects of dementia and its effect, not only on the patient, but on family and caregivers. The love and care shown by all the characters is subtle but touching.

Based on a scale of 1-5, Forever Kind of Love merits a 4.
