About
Brought together by war, separated by duty-a love story for the ages by an author hailed as "Henry David Thoreau meets Nicholas Sparks" (Publishers Weekly)
Margaret Kennedy lives on a dairy farm in rural Maine. Her husband, Thomas, was injured in a war overseas, and he will never again be the man he was. When the president signs a bill in support of wounded veterans, Margaret is invited to the nation's capital. Charlie King, a handsome Foreign Service officer, volunteers to escort her.
As the rhododendrons blossom along the Blue Ridge Highway, the unlikely pair falls in love-but Margaret cannot ignore the tug of her marriage vows.
Like Nicholas Sparks' Dear John, Joseph Monninger's Margaret from Maine is a page-turning romance that poignantly explores the dilemmas faced by those who serve our country-and the men and women who love them.
"A heartfelt, romantic novel about love, loss, the consequences of war, and the price of honor. It reminds us in surprising and gentle ways that love appears when you least expect it."
"Monninger comes to writing with his five senses wide open."
"A well-crafted tale that manages to be poignant and sweet, all at once. Recommended for fans of Nicholas Sparks."
"A wonderful love story and an impassioned look at the world of soldiers and those who love them. If you enjoyed Kristin Hannah's Home Front, you will want to explore Margaret from Maine."
"Tavia Gilbert's buttery voice brings a contemplative quality to this story…With her combination of precise enunciation and soothing tones, Gilbert brings clarity and poignancy to this stirring romance."
"A love affair filled with beautiful words and beautiful places."
"Monninger, author of Eternal on the Water covers themes of loss and longing…strengthening the impact of the novel with his insights into the timely topic of the cruel toll of modern warfare, and the beauty of his depictions of the eastern US."
"Monninger astutely renders the tension in Margaret's struggle between her heart and her belief in what's right."
