Forty-something Kate French has a near-death experience
that turns her controlled, orderly life into an emotional
rediscovery. Kate experienced a heart attack, but a
stranger gave her CPR, thus giving her a second chance at
life. Kate doesn't remember much about the mystery man
except a lean body in blue jeans and a Grateful Dead tee-
shirt. What she does remember explicitly is that she was
wearing a red lace thong, the only pair of underwear in her
drawer that morning.
Mark Kerry has sold his house and is about to leave New
Jersey. He's saying goodbye to his friends and
concentrating on his return to New Hampshire. What he can't
get out of his mind, however, is a red lace thong and the
beautiful woman wearing it. He saved her life, made her a
promise, but he doesn't know who she is or where she is.
Kate doesn't have romantic genes, but her family makes up
for it two-fold. They discover the identity of Kate's hero
and invite him over to the house. When Kate and Mark meet
face-to-face, Kate's predictable future disappears and
Mark's questions about God's plan start to be answered.
Barbara Bretton writes a poignant story about love
and the rediscovery of what our hearts truly want. JUST
LIKE HEAVEN is a touching, funny exploration of what life
can be if we're given a second chance.
It all started with a red lace thong. Normally Kate is a
twin set and pearls kind of girl who wouldn't be caught
dead in such a thing. But that's exactly what happens when
sudden chest pains leave her lying in a parking lot with
her skirt hiked up around her hips for all of Princeton to
see.
It's a man in a Grateful Dead t-shirt who saves her life,
and then disappears without a trace. A total stranger-and
yet Kate would give anything to see him again. How is she
to know that her mystery man is planning a new, far-away
life for himself, one that doesn't include romance, even if
he can't seem to get the woman in red lace out of his mind?
Romance isn't high on Kate's list of priorities either. But
when the handsome good Samaritan shows up on her doorstep,
they discover that even the strongest heart is no match for
love...
