Sunday Kind of Love
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Description
Buckton, Indiana, 1956. As post-war America brims with new opportunities, a young woman discovers the courage to follow her dreams-and her heart . . .
Gwendolyn Foster's life seems like a dream come true. A bright future in front of her, the successful, traditional man her parents wanted at her side. What more could a girl ask for? But Gwen has a different dream altogether-to be a writer-and she won't rest until it comes true. Strong arms to support her, not own her . . . that's what she needs. And she finds them in the most unexpected of places.
Hank Ellis has long been haunted by his little brother's death. He knows the entire town blames him for the accident, but it's only fitting. He blames himself too. So he's shocked when Gwen ignores the vicious gossip and befriends him. And before long, everything changes for them. Folks warn Gwen about Hank, but she knows in her heart that they're wrong. Drawn to this man of bravery and kindness who encourages her to pursue her passions, Gwen can finally envision the life she's always wanted. And with Gwen, Hank finds the strength to let go of his guilt, as he dares to hope for a future with her.
But braving the town that turns against them isn't the only challenge they face. For Hank still harbors a dark secret, a shocking truth that may force him to lose Gwen forever . . .

- source: Publishers Weekly starred review on Twice in a Lifetime
- content: Garlock's terrific story, set in mid-20th-century Missouri, pairs a lonely single mother with a flashy auto racer...Garlock keeps readers so wrapped up in Drake and Clara's romance that it's impossible to put the book down. There's just enough tension, from a few different fronts, to keep things interesting. Thoroughly credible characters and the aw-shucks charm of their small town make this a winner.

All of her life, Gwen Foster has wanted to be a writer. Unfortunately, when she takes the ambitious lawyer she's been dating in Chicago home to Indiana, he announces their engagement to her parents before he's even proposed to her and then belittles her career goals. Gwen knows it's now time to rethink her options. The problem is, the one man who understands how she feels is woodworker Hank Ellis, and she's been warned away from him by everyone in town. Gwen doesn't believe all the stories and knows there must be more, but when she learns the truth, she makes a decision that Hank may never forgive. A spate of arson, vicious bullying and shunning, and some violence enhance the classic Garlock grit. Realistic, poignant, and rich with Midwestern small-town flavor, this compelling story of a woman going after her dreams and the supportive, principled man who walks by her side brings the Fifties--with its now-dated views of women's roles--to life as only this author can. VERDICT Garlock (Twice in a Lifetime) is best known for her many American historicals, especially those set during the first half of the 20th century. She lives in Clear Lake, IA.
