LaVyrle Spencer, known for her "heartrending slices of Americana", writes of how love can be more special the second time around in this New York Times best seller.

It is 1916, and Roberta Jewett is surprised to find that her hometown of Camden, Maine, considers a divorced woman little more than a prostitute. Condemned by her mother and scorned by neighbors, she nonetheless perseveres in her struggle to forge a good life for her girls and herself. Behaving like no "respectable" woman would, she gets a job as a county nurse, learns to drive, and buys her very own Model T.

Embittered by her painful marriage to an unfaithful husband, she has no intention of being any man's victim again. So Roberta is taken aback to find the widowed carpenter Gabriel Farley has somehow found his way into her heart. And in the ultimate test of will and devotion, she must depend on the man she has grown to love - and summon the courage to stand up to an entire town.

Well written and good story. Not complicated and very good insight into family dysfunction and strength winning over bitterness.

This is one of those stories that stays with you.. Not intentionally, not subtlety, but in moments when you're wiping crumbs off the counter or when there's a reference to a 'party line'.
This story is so well voiced and details the raw, unfiltered underbelly of the 'good old days' and doesn't just yank on my heartstrings, it plays tug of war with them and wins out every time. She and he are so beautiful in their stubbornness and their failings and in their willingness to try and be vulnerable with each other in their own way. Lavyrne shows us the amazing messiness of being human and how no one is always right or wrong, we're all just doing our beautiful best. This book will stay with me for a long long time. Bravo

oh my sweet summer child....
