Brian Conway and Hayden MacNulty have had a special
relationship since childhood starting from the moment he
first decided to protect this strange little waif in a
dirty and bedraggled ghost outfit who arrived on his door
that fateful Hallowe'en night.
From friends to lovers to friends to foes and back again,
Hayden and Brian continue to eclipse their lives, never
quite connecting, but never able to lose each other. For
her part, Kathleen Conway, Brian's mom, also felt an
instant connection to Hayden and advised her as she pursued
becoming a nurse like Kathleen and helped her raise her
daughter, Livie, who is also Kathleen's grandchild in her
wonderful family home on Briar Hill Road. Their love for
each other was strong, but would it be strong enough to
sustain them all as Kathleen waged her battle with breast
cancer?
By weaving the past with the present, Holly Jacobs has
crafted a heartfelt tale of two strong willed characters as
they come to terms with their life situations, emotions and
determination to do the right thing. The plotline is
realistic and will hold you in suspense as all the threads
of the story are linked together in a wonderful story of
everlasting love. For my part, I found myself getting too
impatient with both Hayden and Brian as they struggled to
outthink their hearts, nevertheless, it still is a very
intriguing and enjoyable read.
Home isn't a place--it's a feeling
Brian Conway is Hayden MacNulty's hero from the start. One
Halloween, she knocks on his door, and before long, her
puppy love turns serious. His mother, Kathleen, welcomes her
with open arms. Brian's house, with its neat shutters and
window boxes, isn't just a home. It's family.
As the years pass and life pulls them in a different
directions, Brian remains Hayden's touchstone, her best
friend. So how is it that they never seem to get it right
when they're together? Not even the child they bring into
the world can persuade Hayden to accept Brian's proposals.
But a life-altering challenge can change almost anything,
and in one special moment Hayden knows it's time to say, "I
do."
