Description

Whose wife was she?

Macy Lockhart's life shattered in a moment with the news that her husband, Finn -- serving in the military overseas -- has been killed in the line of duty. Their ardent and devoted marriage is over, leaving Macy alone, empty, directionless. But while she tries to sustain herself with memories of Finn, the quiet, strong man who made her and their small Texas ranch the center of his life, it is wealthy Wyatt Clark who slowly brings joy back into her life. Her love for Wyatt may be less romantic than the breathless passion she'd once shared with Finn, but she vows to cherish him, and their marriage is happy and as solid as a rock. Until the day that Finn, miraculously spared from death, returns home to claim his bride....

How can a woman choose between the two men she loves? And how will she make the right choice -- for herself and everyone involved? In a deeply moving, passionate novel, New York Times bestselling author Julia London illuminates the questions hidden in a woman's heart.

How did you come to write this book?

I was intrigued by the lives of people around me who had sons, daughters, spouses and other family members going off to war and coming home, some of them after multiple tours. I thought about the changes families and soldiers go through during long separations and how some are better than others at reclaiming the lives they once had. I wanted to test the ultimate bounds of change: What if a woman was told her soldier husband, the love of her life, had died in the war? What if she struggled to accept his death and finally picked herself up and went on with her life? What if she fell in love again? What if...what if it was all a mistake and he wasn't dead after all?
