Yesterday's Love

Love is sweeter when you find it once again.

Miranda and Garrett were the best of friends growing up together.  Then, while Garrett was a missionary in South America, Tom Kensington swept Miranda off her feet.  He promised that one day he would take her to the temple.  But that day never came.

Miranda’s life with Tom is nothing like she thought it would be, and his unexpected death reveals a secret life Miranda knew nothing about.  Although she tries to hide the truth from her children and family, they encourage her to arrange for a temple sealing to Tom and her children.  But she knows Tom is not the man she wants to be sealed to for eternity. 

Garrett, however, has never forgotten what he felt for Miranda, and he is eager to resume the relationship that had ended more than fifteen years earlier.  But before Miranda can let someone else into her heart, she must shed the bitterness of her betrayel and learn to forgive.

Yesterday’s Love. . . a deeply romantic and moving novel.

Author’s notes:

Two weeks after my fortieth birthday I gave birth to our fourth child.  Choosing to have another child at my age was a real leap of faith for me.  Heavenly Father knew just how much I worried about the health of my baby and being as old as I was.  I think this book, Yesterday’s Love, was His way of telling me what a good decision it was to have this one last, precious child who has been the light of all of our lives.  The story came so easily, yet so powerful to me.  At times I forgot I was writing and felt the words flow through me.  When I would go back and read what I had written I couldn’t remember even writing some of it.  It was a very sweet and special experience to write this book.  It came straight from my heart.  Miranda is someone I grew to care about very much.  Her life parallels that of so many women today.  She needed to learn to forgive and be strong.  Her journey wasn’t easy but what she learned along the way made her a better person.  She is someone I would love to know and have as a friend.  I think you’ll feel the same way.
