After a tailspin in her late teens, Lauren Anderson's life is finally back on track. Her battle with bulimia is under control, her career is taking off, and she's surrounded by a loving family. Then a chance meeting with Carter Douglas, her first love and the man who broke her heart, leads to old feelings returning with new strength. And suddenly her well-balanced world is thrown off kilter.

Now a TV meteorologist, Carter is determined to make amends with Lauren. After all, she still owns his heart. But the reasons they broke up aren't lost—and those old demons are forcing him toward the same decision he faced in the past. He isn’t sure he's courageous enough to make a different choice this time around.

When Lauren's elderly grandmother, Rosie, begins having nightmares about a man named Ephraim—a name her family has never heard before—a fascinating and forbidden past love comes to light. As Lauren and Carter work to uncover the untold stories of Rosie's past in 1950s Wichita, they embark on a journey of forgiveness and second chances that will change their lives—and Rosie’s—forever. Along the way, they'll learn that God wastes nothing, his timing is perfect, and nothing is beyond his grace and redemption.

I very much enjoyed your second book. I loved the continued story of Grandma and Lauren her brother and fiance. it was a surprise when the story of Ephram came up but glad it did, the way it was handled was beautiful. The guidance of The Lord was another way that the author took a risk in helping to establish the characters positive ending. Amanda has wonderful talent in this area and I hope she has many more books planned.

I loved both books. The characters became like family. Well written. Historically accurate time slip novels that had my attention throughout. Highly recommend!!!

Wonderful series.

This story was really spectacular. There are so many layers and the two timelines were very well intertwined. I liked so many things about this story. The forbidden love. The symbolism with black-and-white floor tiles and Piano keys. The difference in culture between the 1950s and today; though I wasn’t around in the 1950s, I kind of related to that part of the story more. It helps that I met the love of my life in high school chorus a long time ago also! Loved seeing the romance blossoming.. and the modern day story, with the push and pull back-and-forth romance and insecurities and fears. Important topics like addiction. The best thing of all was seeing how the true healing comes from Jesus. I loved this audio version, it was outstanding!

So good!
