Compelled to move back to the comfort of his home town, Jimmy Scott returns to Hart's Crossings, a small town with a big heart. And it's just as he remembered. Then he bumps into an old friend-Steph Carlson, a childhood sweetheart he had once dreamt of spending the rest of his life with. Those dreams went unrealized when he went off to the Korean War, and they both ended up marrying others. Now Jimmy and Steph are both in Hart's Crossing. And when Jimmy realizes that they've both survived the deaths of their spouses, he begins to wonder what might have happened if only . . . As memories of their first kiss and innocent courtship flood back, Jimmy finds he still has feelings for this woman. Does she feel the same about him? Will they be able to rekindle what they had so many years ago? Or is it too late for a second chance at romance?

5.0 out of 5 stars
enjoyable second chance romance for the elderly,
This review is from: Veterans Way (Harts Crossing, Book 2) (Hardcover)
When he was eighteen, Jimmy Scott left Hart's Crossing, Idaho to join the army leaving behind his high school sweetheart Steph Carlson because he felt he was too young to marry. He married Martha and raised three children with her until she passed away three years ago. Steph wed Chuck and raised a daughter until he died last year. After fifty-two years away from his home town except for occasional visits to his parents, Jimmy moves back from Bremerton, Washington to live his final years in Hart's Crossing.
Steph and Jimmy reflect back to their first kiss when he was ten and she was nine on V-J Day. Other memories are just as fond of their times together. Although they were both happily married for decades to different spouses that they still love and cherish, these two grandparents still love one another. However, even with the Thimbleberry Quilt Club praying for this septuagenarian couple coming together, will Steph and Jimmy take that step they did not take over five decades ago? This enjoyable second chance romance stars two likable elderly protagonists who find love though in the autumn of their lives. The key to the tale is that their deceased spouses were nice people not monsters easily forgotten once scars healed. Instead both enjoyed a fruitful loving marriage after splitting as teens and are now debating coming back together as senior citizens. The second Hart's Crossing tale (see LEGACY LANE for the previous novel) is a fine tale that emphasizes life is to be lived to the fullest at any age. Harriet Klausner

A pleasant reminder of love,

This review is from: Veterans Way (Harts Crossing, Book 2) (Hardcover)
I wasn't expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did. It is an enjoyable reminder of God's love and of the importance of marriage, at any age. This is a simple read, but one definitely worth the time to take.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A sweet, touching love story.,

This review is from: Veterans Way (Harts Crossing, Book 2) (Hardcover)
This story is a short, cute read. I mean, if you are elderly, why wait? You know by then how to read your emotions and I don't think anyone should tell you what to do, unless you are having memory problems etc.
I really love books that have a point and aren't filled with today's nonsense and loss of morals and character. These characters touched my heart and reminded us to pray and read God's word, and then let God handle it. I like books where everyone gets along, but there is always a bit of conflict in life. This book shows we can work through it however.
