It’s easy to recognize another’s pain. The tough part is facing your own.

When Dorothy Thompson returns to Cherish, SC, to play piano for her brother’s wedding, memories and fear nearly paralyzes her fingers. If anyone she knew back in high school discovers her secret, the whispers will start. Fake. Fraud. Failure.

It’s not as if she can blame God for her troubles. No, she did that all by herself. But, remembering His lessons, she’s fighting to get back on track. All she can do is pray the wedding vocalist—her brother’s friend Ryan, a rising opera star—won’t notice the way her hands shake.

When Ryan Edwards sets foot inside a church for the first time in years, he’s no longer the pitiable kid from the poor side of town, but someone who’s made it on his own. Without God’s help—not that He ever cared about misfits like Ryan, anyway.

When he lays eyes on Dorothy—all grown up, more beautiful than ever, and clearly hiding something—he almost forgets why he left Cherish. Almost. But while his heart yearns to call the tune, he can’t forget his hard-earned career comes first…and his old friend’s little sister is off limits.

Note: Contains references to opiate addiction and recovery.

When the storm destroys everything, remember God has your name on something else.

4.0 out of 5 stars Are there really second chances?

Sweet second chance love story of Dorothy and Ryan. They had been friends with a crush in hs, but she was Miss Popularity and he came from the other side of town and couldn’t wait to leave. Their music bound them together with his amazing operatic voice and her dreams of being a concert pianist. His dreams were rapidly rising, but her dreams had fizzled as carpal tunnel made playing difficult and then there were the pain meds. They both were in town to play for her brother’s wedding and then they were going to be on different continents. No chance to reconnect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Being Disappointed In Life

What a sweet, sorta second chance story. Dorothy and Ryan grew up together as really good friends.
Circumstances parted them. Now there back and maybe, just maybe things will work to their advantage.
Two different people, two different lives, pulled in two different directions.
Where will each end up and how will they each
continue to live the lives each has made for themselves.
With a lot obstacles and surprises, you need to read the book to find out.
I was disappointed at the end at first, but then it made sense. You will see.
I would definitely recommend this book, hands down.

Having faith is what can get you through everything. Dorothy and Ryan lean on that once they know it is what they need. Very cute story about what they went through and overcame.
