ABOUT THE BOOK
Greg's feet suddenly became very heavy and his head very light as he stood and watched the opening of the bars that had kept him separated from the world .... If not for the knowledge that his sister would be waiting outside to take him home—and that he had two children at home waiting for him—he might have preferred to turn around and ask to stay.
And so begins a new chapter in Greg's life, which includes the daunting tasks of earning the trust and respect of his teen-aged children, finding meaningful employment in a society that doesn't always take kindly to those who have "served time," and daring to believe in love, with its miracles of healing and forgiveness. And Greg has no illusions about conquering these hurdles. However, with the support of a devoted sister and her extended family and the unexpected gift of a uniquely charming and brave woman's love ... it all just might happen.
In this utterly captivating novel, bestselling author Anita Stansfield achieves a satisfying balance of romance, humor, and deep glances into the human heart and soul. It is a story that resonates with emotional truths that will linger long after the last page is turned.
REVIEW
This follow-up to Legally and Lawfully Yours, focuses on Shannon's brother, Greg, as he struggles to assimilate back into mainstream life after his years in jail. While he is a changed man, he faces great uncertainty in terms of finding a job, trying to father his children, and deciding what to do with the rest of his life. When he meets Celia, his sister's legal assistant, his world starts looking up, but he's not at all sure that he's got much to offer her. One of the things that I love about Anita Stansfield's books is how real the characters feel, along with their problems. It feels like they could just step right out of the story into the real world. This makes reading her books an emotional journey, and this one is no different.
