ABOUT THE BOOK<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Texas, 1865 Willow Madison and her friends, Copper and Audrey taught school in neighboring Texas communities until the Yankees rode into the area and burned them out. In the midst of fear and chaos, survivors banded together to fight for what remained of their homes. Then word reached the people that the terrible war was over.<\/p>\n

Now penniless but still hopeful, Willow vows she will take care of her friends, Copper and Audrey, and her ailing uncle, in Thunder Ridge, Texas, even if it means having to marry wealthy Silas Sterling, a man thirty years her senior. But standing in her way is handsome sawmill owner Tucker Gray, with his enticing eyes and infuriating headstrong manner\u2014the man Willow cannot get out of her head . . . or her heart. Even though her friends beg her not to give up her dream of happiness, Willow is determined to do the right thing for those who are dearest to her. But which path does God want Willow to take: a life of duty and commitment . . . or a life of everlasting love?<\/p>\n

MY REVIEW:<\/h3>\n

Twice Loved<\/a> literally begins and ends with a bang and the pages between contain enough action, humor, conflict, and romance to keep the reader engaged. Set in the appropriately named town, Thunder Ridge, Texas, Twice Loved<\/a> is filled with well developed characters who are essential to the appeal of the story.<\/p>\n

It is difficult to add to the description from the back cover without revealing too much about the plot. Willow’s determination to sacrifice her own happiness to help her friends and family is tested as she and Tucker battle their unwelcome attraction. Will Willow rely on God or her own strength to decide her future? I suggest that you get a copy of Twice Loved<\/a> and enjoy Willow’s story in order to find the answer.<\/p>\n

Fans of Lori Copeland will not be disappointed by Twice Loved<\/a> and those unfamiliar with her books would do well to start with this series.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
