Olivia Banks has truly loved only one man, James McElroy.
The father of her baby abandoned her years ago to obey his
father's wishes. Desperate and alone, Olivia does what she
thinks is best for her son. She moves away from her home and
marries a wonderful man who will raise Kyle as his own.
The problem is Olivia pines only for James. The marriage is
a success by most standards, but she can never truly give
her heart to this man. After years of doing what is right by
her child, now her life is about to begin with the man she
sincerely loves. Or is it?
James McElroy loved only one woman, Olivia Banks. He never
knew when he left that she was pregnant with his child until
he returns years later. As fate would have it, the two
marry, but he may not be around long enough to enjoy his
life with his true love. Illness may claim their happy life
together. Will he be able to have time with the son he never
knew or the woman he longed for for so many years? Will his
family ever give her a chance? And finally, is he strong
enough now to stand up to them?
HEART OF MY HEART by Stella MacLean is a tale of hope, true
love and perseverance. The characters are complex and
inspiring. The plot is endearing. A great read for those who
have ever been in love, or who hope to have a true love that
lasts a lifetime.
When James McElroy said those words, seventeen-year-old
Olivia Banks believed him. And when she discovered she
was
pregnant with his child, she expected to marry the love
of
her life. Instead, the young couple was separated. Olivia
thought she'd been abandoned and was forced to accept
another man's offer to marry her and raise the boy as his
own.
Now, decades later, the truth reunites James and
Olivia. They are husband and wife at long last. As James
lies ill in a hospital bed, Olivia recounts her life
with-
and without-him. Their story gives her faith that the
heart of her heart will return to her again. Because her
first love is her last love-her only love.
