Patricia Yager Delagrange has written what I would say as an excellent women's romance novel.  Its heart wrenching at times and I will admit I shed a few tears. But it was one of those stories you cannot put down and I would say one of the better romance novels I've read in awhile.  Patricia's writing is excellent the words flowed seamlessly and her writing made you feel actual emotions when reading this story.  I would compare her writing to someone like Nicholas Sparks; I truly loved this story and couldn't put it down till I reached the end.This is a story of love, loss, recovery and moving forward.  We are introduced to Weston and Brandy having just lost their baby, Brandy is overcome with sadness and depression blaming herself for the death of her new born daughter.
