About This Book
After five long years of widowhood, Beth Bennett has finally become comfortable in her new normal. She isn't deliriously happy, but she is content in her life. She has a good job as a teacher, good friends, and her children are soon to be out of the nest. Then former high school football hero Sonny Riley comes back to town, walks into her life and knocks her completely out of her comfort zone. Sonny Riley, now going by Rick, couldn't get out of small-town Latitude, Alabama fast enough. After twenty years as an air force pilot, a broken marriage, and more years flying for a commercial airline, he believes he is a success in life. Then his elderly mother is taken ill. When he comes home to see her through her final days, he finds Beth, his mother's lovely neighbor. Beth and Rick barely knew each other when they were younger, but from the moment Rick steps onto her front porch, sparks begin to fly. Rick sees that life in Latitude isn't the drab existence he had tried so hard to escape, and Beth realizes that there is more to life than getting by one day at a time. Can two such disparate people, celebrate their differences and find happiness together?
