Prompt: ANGEL

What a lovely, lovely book.

Widowed at 40, lonely, wondering what to do now after she had let years pass by, "Angel" Dawn Marie decided to vacation in Scotland. 

If you enjoy Scottish history and listening/reading the written Gaelic brogue, you will fall in love with the book and definitely the characters.

Not in my top favorites of the year but still a good read. In The Year of Second Chances the MC Robin learns that her deceased husband set her up a dating profile for her to move on a year after his death. The book follows her along the journey of really dealing with her grief and ultimately finding herself with what is next. She learns it's ok to take care of yourself after she's taken so much time caring for everyone else.

1. I don't often go on picnics, but I'd take either hard-boiled eggs, deviled eggs, or an egg salad sandwich. Homemade iced tea to drink.

2. The tagged book 📖

In my opinion, this is Lynn Austin's BEST book yet! The era, the story; stunning scene descriptions and a story so beautifully told. The character development is phenomenal! An intricately woven tale of three generations of Stanhope women, set in New York during the "Gilded Era". Two great loves, 2 great loves lost. So many "lessons". Junietta, Sylvia, and Adelaide work through grief (so realistically written!) Cont in comments

TheHeartlandBookFairy and change (never easy!) to find their future while honoring their past. I have 3 favorite quotes from this book, two of them have a very personal meaning to me: "The memories don't live in the house, they're in your heart.", "Death brings the end of so many dreams that we have for ourselves and our loved ones.", and "Love is a greater legacy to leave than wealth." .I was deeply touched by this story, the adversity, the injustice, the revelations, the growth, the enlightenment, the triumph. Lynn Austin, Thank you for this beautiful labor of love, the wonderful work of art!

Oh what a tangled web we weave,

though not in a purposeful attempt to deceive,

The secrets kept by grandmother and mother,

to protect their daughters, to protect others.

Audiobook narration by Julia Whelan really brings out both the great banter and serious emotional themes of this story. So fun to listen to, and touching and romantic too.
