About
The dark days of the Second World War are past, and life is looking like a shiny new penny for Jon Porter. Living a bohemian artist’s life in New York City, Jon’s finally found acceptance and is within an arm’s length of becoming the next hot thing in the art world. Then everything goes horribly wrong. One telegram from the small Pennsylvania town he’d fled from years before draws him back to bury his estranged sister and take charge of the nephew he never knew existed.
Into the chaos and grief comes local woodworker Ross Coleman, an older man with an easy smile and a gentle manner that charms Jon instantly. They quickly fall for each other but there’s no easy way for two men in 1945 to be together, let alone raise a child, even if Jon was sure he wanted a child, which he’s not. And then there’s the final letter from his sister waiting for him among all the legal papers and bills…
What can she possibly have to say that they hadn’t screamed at each other over their father’s casket?
