Danielle Mansfield is trying to get her life back on
track,
and that means moving to the small community of Carson
Mills,
with her fifteen year old son, Ethan. Discovering that her
deceased husband had squandered all of their money on his
long-term mistress, has forced the move for Danielle, but
there were other reasons. The cabin at the lake in the
little
town has always held a special place in her heart, and she
hoped it would work some magic on her relationship with
her
troubled son. Angry and detached, Danielle fears that
Ethan is
going down the wrong path. Danielle also needs to get
control
of her life again from her parents, who have taken many
decisions out of her hands. But Danielle never expected to
run
into Matt Kovacs, the only man she has ever loved, and the
man
who had abandoned her when she had needed him the most.
Matt Kovacs is shocked and delighted to find Dani living
in
the same town. Having got his act together years ago, he
is
now working as a teacher and volunteering for his local
church, as a youth pastor. Desperate to reach out to
Danielle,
he understands that she is hesitant because of their
troubled
past, but when she asks him to help her son, he doesn't
hesitate.
As their feelings for each other resurface, Danielle
and Matt are forced to revisit their tragic history. As
lies,
secrets and betrayals are revealed, will Danielle and Matt
be
able to forgive and move on? And will Ethan learn the
error of
his ways before it is too late?
LIKE A BAD PENNY by Selena Fulton is a sweet story about
second chances. Both Danielle and Matt have made mistakes
and
it is heartbreaking to watch them struggle to trust again.
Faith is a strong component of this novel, and is at the
heart
of the community and the relationships within it. I
enjoyed
the secondary characters, like Madi, as they help bring
Danielle's character to life. At times, I did wish that
Danielle would just have a little more backbone, and say
what
she has to say, but overall I like her character.
LIKE A BAD
PENNY by Selena Fulton is brimming with hope, tenderness
and
belief, and is an enjoyable read.
Newly widowed and destitute, Danielle Mansfield needs to
get
creative. Fast. Determined to start a new life, she moves
her resistant teenage son to their vacation cabin in
Carson
Mill, NC. Her plan fails when she runs headlong into the
guy
who was her past, looking as handsome as ever.
Danielle, the only woman Matt Kovacs ever loved, also
represents his biggest regret. Believing nothing happens
by
chance when he discovers she lives in the same town, he
needs to explain his disappearance from her life sixteen
years ago. Can Danielle and Matt overcome the hurt and
distrust to forge a new beginning?
