Publisher's summary

Two lost souls find love in this heartfelt historical romance from New York Times best-selling author LaVyrle Spencer.

In town, they called her "Crazy Widow Dinsmore". But Elly was no stranger to their ridicule - she had been an outsider all her life, growing up in a boarded-up old house under the strict eye of her eccentric grandparents. Now she was all alone, with two little boys to raise, and a third child on the way.

Will Parker drifted into Whitney, Georgia, one lazy afternoon in the summer, hoping to put his lonely past behind him. He yearned for the tenderness he had never known, the home he'd never had. All he needed was for someone to give him a chance.

Then he saw her classified ad: WANTED - A husband. When he stepped across Elly Dinsmore's cluttered yard, Will knew he had come home at last....

This is such a good story!

I love this book! I read it many years ago so when I saw it available on Audible I got it. The performance of the reader is so good and I thoroughly enjoyed the story again.

Wonderful!

I have so many favorite authors and this is one. Great story and great performance. The main characters are easy to get attached to, especially the children. My only negative is it gets a little graphic at times. Recommended.

Worth the listen!

Good story of resilience, personal growth and love. Make you remember that we all are struggling with something and we grow by being vulnerable with trustworthy people.

I loved this book. From the characters to the narrator to the plot. It all came together well. Will and Ellie make a wonderful couple and deserve the happiness they got in the end.
