Although
legally an adult, Millicent Anderson is still under her father’s domineering
thumb. She lives her life according to her father’s demands, all the while
giving up her own dreams for her life.
But in the summer of 1957, a family vacation to the unlikely destination of
Moose Falls, Montana lands her face to face with the man who is destined to be
her soul mate. As fate would have it, Johnny Pickett is also exactly the kind
of guy her father would never let her be friends with, much less date.
Will Millie defy her family and find true love in the arms of bad boy Johnny?
YOU SEND ME is a short story prequel to Toni Blake’s full-length
novel, LETTERS TO A SECRET LOVER. In LETTERS TO A SECRET
LOVER, the heroine moves to Moose Falls to learn more about her late
Aunt Millie, and perhaps continue her legacy in the small town that so revered
her. In YOU SEND ME, we travel back in time to the summer when a
young Millie first visited Moose Falls, and learn just why the town meant so
much to her for the rest of her days.
Although a novella, YOU SEND ME is no less poignant for the brief
length. The romance between Millie and Johnny moves along rapidly, but
logically. We feel the magic between these lovers that binds them more surely
in a few weeks than years together could ever do.
Both Johnny and Millie help each other grow during their courtship. Still
haunted by the ravages of the war he fought in, Johnny finds a comfort in Millie
that heals his wounded soul. In turn, Johnny fosters courage in Millie to stand
up to her father and grab her dreams.
YOU SEND ME is a wonderful little tryst – short and sweet, but
with a definite moral to the story and a lot of romance!
