A sweeping saga of love and war in the pioneer days of Florida.
Betsy, a widow of five years, is ready to love again. The problem is she lives on an island dominated by single men. Once word gets out she is looking for a new husband, how will she fend off the hordes of men without the protection of family? Is it even possible for her to find love again or will she be forced to settle for less?
A recently widowed journalist, Theodore is struggling with his grief and the care of his young son. His boss, more friend than employer, offers an irresistible assignment in the hopes of relieving Theodore's melancholy. What starts as a summer sabbatical in Key West turns into an extended adventure embroiling Theodore in the Second Seminole War and lures him to an enchanting seamstress. Can peace be found for the country and for the turbulence in his heart?
Love Again is set in a time when our nation is young, arrogant, and expanding, but a political storm is brewing over slavery. In the midst of this heyday with its dark undercurrents, Theodore finds his loyalties tested. His patriotism collides with the injustices perpetrated on the indigenous people, and his sympathies are challenged by their brutal retaliation against the pioneer settlers of Florida. Can Theodore remain true to his beliefs and avoid taking sides in the midst of the swirling conflict?
Can Betsy find her happily ever after in the midst of the Great Seminole War?
Although, Love Again is the second book in the series, it is a complete story and can be read as a single book. However, much as we are our own story tied to those before and after us, so is this book tied to the first and those that will follow.
The Love in Key West books are generational stories, blending facts and fiction, to highlight the fascinating history of Key West, Florida.
