Maren's stuck at the intersection of heartache and love, but happily ever after might be just around the corner.
Author Lisa Swinton delivers another sassy, sweet romance
that keep readers turning pages. On the Corner of Heartache and Love is a
light, fun read with spunky characters and a plotline beset with wonder and woes.
After three years of dating, Maren Summers is about to have her dream wedding to the man of her dreams, Kevin Bryant. In fact, all her dreams are about to come true in every facet of her life. That
is until Kevin dumps her at the altar, runs off with someone Maren
is very close to, ruins that relationship for her, and becomes her new boss. And
she’s relinquished her apartment. What???
Now homeless, Maren moves in with best-friend and pastry protégé,
Cassidy, whose apartment overlooks a park where a real homeless man loves. Or is
he?
Clean, handsome, and well-supplied, Zane Whitfield is on a mission to keep
a promise to his lost love, even if it means spending a year outside on the
spot where they met and where he hopes she’ll return.
Maren sees his tale of devotion as a great human interest
story, and her ticket out of her newspaper’s now agonizing “Weddings” beat, away
from her former fiancé’s control, and on to the job she’s really aiming for—“Features.”
But along the way, Maren breaks the cardinal rule of journalism—don’t get
involved with the story. The key to the story is helping the handsome Zane find
his lost love, but Zane also appears to be the balm for her own broken heart. Career,
or another chance at love? She can only have one.
To Maren’s ongoing dismay, her wedding beat takes her to
some of the most “creative” weddings of the season, and Swinton places the
reader right in these fun scenes, using descriptions and details that add depth
and dazzle to the story. Her characters develop and grow and keep you cheering
for their happiness. But there is tension around every corner.
Readers
ache as Maren is repeatedly forced to witness Kevin’s bubbling joy with his new
wife. But Swinton balances Maren’s agony and Zane’s pain with the solace they
each feel in finding someone who understands. This compassion balances nicely
against the zany wedding scenes.
On the Corner of Heartache and Love makes for a sweet
afternoon dessert I highly recommend! This RONE award finalist may have another award-winner on
her hands.
