'I was thirty-three years old when my husband walked out into the field one morning and never came back . . .'
Suddenly widowed, the once adventurous Lucy Hatch is forced to face what her life has become. Raised on stories of a philandering father who flew the coup, Lucy married young to strong, silent and reliable Mitchell. Having mistaken his silence for something deeper, she realised too late that she didn't love him. But in time Lucy had became someone whose life she's learned not to mind.
When she returns to her tiny Texas home town, contemplating a life of quiet solitude, her world is turned upside down. The last thing she expects to find is the first man to sweep her off her feet - and Lucy at first has no intention of being swept. But when her defences are almost worn down by the charming and determined Ash Farrell, Lucy must do battle with an irate former lover, a false arrest, the worst flood in twenty years - and the watchful eye and wagging tongue of everyone in town.
With a cast of crazy characters and an irresistible heroine, 'The Second Coming Of Lucy Hatch' is the story of woman who finally breaks free - and finds the sort of man who comes along only once in a lifetime.
