Kate is a 41-one year old lapsed Catholic. Mark is the Episcopalian priest in a Grateful Dead t-shirt who saves her life when she has a heart attack in the mall parking lot. This book evolved into an absolutely charming, quick read. It's an exploration of feelings and the need to overcome past mistakes and physical logistics. There is a wonderful supporting cast of Kate's mother, Maeve; her daughter, Gwynne, and a wonderful 97 yr-old lady in a nursing home. I truly enjoyed this one!

This was a great love story. While it wasn't racy or hot, it definitely conjured up strong sentiments about true love. Even though the main male character was an Episcopal priest, he wasn't a prude. He was very funny and lovable.

I have read a few of Bretton's books and loved them but not this one. I can put aside that the CPR and heart attack was extremely inaccurate. It's a romance after all so I can definitely suspend reality. But the first half of the book (the only part I can push myself through)was like an ode to the Catholic Church and the Pharmaceutical company.

On top of that she usually has some really interesting characters but I found Kate to be really dull. The repeated attempts for her to feel something just ran around in circles.

Skip this one!
