He walks back into Hannah's life four years later, bringing Hannah anger and confusion at Brock's behavior. He was her one indiscretion, but it's also how she got her son, Davey. Brock is the father of Hannah's child but he doesn't know it and he doesn't even react as if he recalls their marriage.Yesterday's Promise is a reunion love story, my favorite kind. Lovely readable style that captures you within the first few pages. I must comment on the flashback sequences. Most authors love to include these kinds of scenes and more often than not, they are unnecessary and slow down the flow of the story. The flashback scenes in this book were done with such poignancy and beauty that I couldn't imagine the story without them. Very well done.This is the kind of book to curl up with and continue reading all afternoon. I absolutely loved it. The characters, the writing--all beautifully done. Such an emotional tale tenderly told. Tell your friends, tell your family. They will want to read this book.
