Tamara Alexander's first book is a great one. Rekindled starts off so strong you just can't abandon it. He's home. He's dead. His wife's moved on. Larson is not a happy man. And yet, as a new Christian, he's more at peace with the world than he's ever been. Still, he probably should have just gone up and said, "Honey, I'm home." But where's the story in that? He pulls back, then she doesn't recognize the scarred drifted, then he sees her going into a brothel and assumes the worst, then......
Alexander begins with a bang, then she lets the story grow. Larson and Kathryn make mistakes and trust the wrong people and in the end, love triumphs over all in the sweetest way possible. A beautiful book that was a delight to read and I already know which secondary characters I want to star in the sequel, and book three.
