Lovesong Encore

Sixty-four-year-old Eisel Jane McCord's world is going along just fine until her husband of forty-three years, Jimmy, announces without warning that he's joining an archaeological dig in Peru-solo. Well, she decides, if he can make life-altering decisions and live so easily without her, she can do the same! She dusts off her teenage bucket list and realizes that she still hadn't checked off "buying a house" and "experiencing a great romance," since she'd done the one in tandem and, well, marriage hadn't produced the other. Enter an adorable country cottage, and two desirable bachelors, Cal and Dan, both who sweep Eisel off her feet-creating a sticky love quadrangulation that gets more complicated with every flirty comment these two men make. And of course, there's still Jimmy.

At sixty-three with a failed marriage, a dead-end job, and a solid belief that all men leave their women, Jessamine Jo Woodley (Jessie) is feeling the loss of her one cheerleader in life, Auntie J, who has just passed away-leaving her a healthy trust and a cabin in the charming town of Woodcreek, Colorado. However, Auntie J stipulates that Jessie must complete a mysterious series of tasks before collecting . . . all proctored by a handsome lawyer, Finnegan Cooper Conrad. As Jessie undertakes the tasks, she starts to rethink her life. When Jessie and Finn fall in love, Jessie's lifetime panic response sweeps her out of his arms. A sinking boat, hypothermia, and a timely rescue by her knight in shining armor pull her back from the brink. Turns out, sixty-three is just getting started for Jessamine Jo Woodley. Thanks Auntie J!
