The hero is a character from one of her MUCH earlier books. I liked it well enough, but was hoping this book was another of her "heartbreak" series. She is an excellent author. Her story lines make sense, her characters are well developed, and she does a good job with dialog.

Great Book. I would suggest reading "Somebody's Baby" and "Somebody's Lady" first.

Tyler Lewis had been severly beaten and emotionally abused as a child. He had taken the beatings to save his mother and other siblings. His mother ended up stabbing his father to death. Tyler looked and sounded most like his father so the whole town figured he would eventually turn out just like him. When he hooked up with his first (and last) girlfriend whom the author tried to portray as a raving bitch, Tyler had backhanded her during a fight. He was afraid of being like his father so he hid away at his house for five years until Jayne Miller moved next door. He began helping her with household tasks and he adored her daughter. He naturally tried to break things off with Jayne to protect her from himself but he couldn't do it. All in all, this was a good story but I would still be VERY leery of a man who hit a woman EVEN ONCE and was regretful about it.
This book tore me up inside. I don't think I could ever have imagined that spousal abuse could have such a devastaingly ugly effect on sons. This books puts you right inside the mind, heart and soul of Tyler and makes you just want to weep for him.
This is a tender love story about two truly lost souls who find their way toward each other, though they've both been hurt in the past. Jayne and Tyler take it one day at a time (just like in real life!) until they eventually steal into each other's heart. If you liked the little town of Sweetwater, TN, try to get your hands on Somebody's Baby (Sarah & Daniel) and Somebody's Lady (Beth & Zach), they're all loosely related.
