My first book by Jody Bailey Day happens to be the second in a series, but it is complete enough to stand alone. She has a realistic writing style that takes her readers on a trip that is not soon forgotten.
Scott has had a heart attack and he is having a hard time coming to terms with what this means for him, his fiancee, and his businesses. He goes through the stages of grief for a life that once was and for a life that won't be again. His fiancee, Bailey, tries to stand beside him and encourage him, but he's having none of it. Finally, he breaks off his engagement, but Bailey hasn't given up.
This is a novella that is a quick read, that will fill a lazy afternoon with thought-provoking entertainment. The characters are believable; the setting, while fictional, is easily imagined and fully fleshed out. The tension in the plot keeps the reader involved all the way to the end.
