This
Time Love
By Elizabeth
Lowell
Can we
escape our past or are we forever its prisoner? Can we find our
way back to happiness and love, or do we only get one chance? In
This Time Love, Elizabeth Lowell's characters search for
answers to these questions. Their journeys take them from love,
to betrayal and lies, and back again.
When Gabriel Venture left 20 year
old Joy Anderson, she is devastated . . . and pregnant. She struggles
alone to raise her daughter, finish college, and just survive. And,
she does. Joy is now a respected researcher faced with the imminent
end to her valued project. She would do anything to save the project,
even work with the man she hates but cannot forget. When 27year
old Dr. Joyce Anderson faces Gabe again, she feels the pain of her
past closing in on her
Gabriel, now a popular writer, has
spent the last seven years regretting leaving Joy, and traveling
the world trying to forget her. Even though they both try, neither
can forget the past, and doubt that they can forgive it.
When you open a book by Elizabeth
Lowell, you know you're in for a powerful story, honest emotions
and beautifully drawn characters. This Time Love delivers
on all accounts. Lowell makes you taste Joy and Gabriel's regret
and anxiously cross your fingers in hope for their future. These
characters and this story will get under your skin and stay there
long after you close the book. This Time Love is a story
of the power of love, the power to overwhelm us, to destroy us,
and ultimately, if we are very lucky, to redeem us.
