REBECCA'S REVIEWS:
THE WAY HOME
"Cal, there's a woman on the phone who says she won you in an auction. Is she a nut, or is there something you haven't told me?"
It was a bold move, broadcast journalist Amy Winter would be the first to admit . . . .but purchasing a date with the tight-lipped prosecutor Cal Richards might give her an advantage in the high profile trial she was covering . . . or not. Determined to make a name for herself in order to secure an anchor spot, Amy was willing to walk out on a limb. The question was . . . would it hold her?
She just wouldn't go away. Cal Richards was known through-out the Atlanta area for refusing interviews, but Amy Winter had not read "the memo" which read . . . back off. When Cal realizes that Amy is the one who paid an enormous amount of money to his favorite charity for an evening in his presence, well . . . how hard could it be? Thankfully, he had no idea.
This charming, but deeply meaningful not-really friends-to-more-than-just-friends trope is filled to the brim with everything that makes a story sing off the page! (right, Gram?) . . . all the way home.

BackCover Blurb:
She seemed to have it all—
except a way home.
Broadcast journalist Amy Winter has her sights set on a network job, and the sports-star trial she’s been assigned to cover for her Atlanta station might be just the thing to get her noticed by the corporate bigwigs. If she can persuade prosecuting attorney Cal Richards to cooperate with her coverage. But the man is more tight-lipped than a CIA agent.
Cal has no time for pushy journalists who prefer sensationalism over substance. And Amy is beyond pushy. Case in point—finagling her way into a date with him. When their paths cross in a different setting, however, his opinion of her begins to change…and his feelings start to deepen. But the dream he’s kept close to his heart doesn’t align with her career ambitions, creating a major roadblock to romance.
Can these two strong, determined people find a way to reconcile their divergent ambitions and build a future together, or will their blossoming love vanish like a Smoky Mountains mist?
In this RT Book Reviews Reviewer’s Choice Award winner, bestselling author Irene Hannon shares a tender story about the power of love to change lives and the importance of discovering what really matters.
"Eric Carlson. The man who'd saved Jack's life."
Kate Nolan's life had changed dramatically since that icy winter evening; her husband had been severely injured and in spite of the kind physician who had worked frantically to save Jack's life, he had died seven months later without ever regaining consciousness. What a coincidence that their paths would cross five years later when her daughter Sarah was experiencing chronic stomach aches, only to be seen by none other than pediatrician Dr. Eric Carlson.
Eric Carlson's life had also changed dramatically since the evening he worked feverishly to save the life of the critically injured car accident victim; Eric had lost his wife to divorce and now filled the void by working longer hours and volunteering for multiple non-profit organizations. Seeing Kate again was a jolt to his senses, but what did it mean? He had learned the hard way that medicine and marriage didn't make a good partnership.
What a wonderful reading experience! The word flow is as beautiful as the love story written between its pages, and the characters? . . . "I needed you, and here you are".

Single mom Kate Nolan has endured more than her share of trauma and loss, and now her young daughter is having adjustment issues at her new day-care facility. The five-year-old has also developed mysterious stomachaches that need attention, even if Kate would prefer not to set foot in a medical facility ever again.
Pediatrician Eric Carlson never forgot the woman in the smashed car on that icy night he stopped to assist at an accident scene. And when she brings her little girl to his office, it’s clear both mother and daughter are under severe stress.
Arranging to have his recently widowed mother take over day-care duties seems like a solution to multiple problems. Except the setup brings problems of its own. Because as Kate and Eric begin to see more of each other, sparks fly—and neither is looking for romance. But if they can both find a way to leave the past behind and open their hearts again to the gift of love, might they discover that the best is yet to be?
In this RT Book Reviews Reviewer’s Choice Award finalist, bestselling author Irene Hannon delves deep into the heart of characters yearning for love...and takes readers along on a touching journey to healing and hope.
