About the Book For sixty years, a wedding chapel sat silent, waiting for love. But times have changed and the hour has come when it just might be too late. Retired hall-of-fame football coach Jimmy “Coach” Westbrook never imagined anything would come of his labor of love—the wedding chapel he built for Collette Greer, the woman he fell for back in ‘49. But now an offer has come to turn the chapel into what it was meant to be—a place for love—and Jimmy sees no reason to hang onto his dream any longer. Photographer Taylor Branson is trying to make a life for herself in New York. Leaving her hometown of Heart’s Bend, Tennessee, she put a lot of things behind her, including her family’s abysmal marriage rate. But love surprises her when she falls head-over-heels for Jack Forester, a top ad man. Their whirlwind romance results in an elopement, and a mountain of doubt. Jack, while genuine in his love for Taylor, can never seem to overcome his own demons to find the words of his heart. When Taylor takes an assignment in Heart’s Bend, the job does more than send her back to her hometown, but into a world of family secrets buried beneath the sands of time. When Taylor’s journey intersects with Coach’s, they rediscover the heartbeat of their dreams and that the love they long to hold is right in front of them. And worth every waiting moment.

Author Rachel Hauck has created a beautiful and inspiring novel about lost love, finding love, relationships, and hope. The story is filled with many richly developed characters that readers will fall in love with from page one. Not only are the characters excellent, but the enthralling intertwined relationships between Talor Branson and her husband Jack and the relationship between Jimmy Westbrook and Collette Greer are uniquely woven together with the connection of an old wedding chapel. Never having read a book by Rachel Hauck before, I had a pretty good idea that this novel would be delightful, but was unprepared for the exquisite and magnificent way that Rachel puts her thoughts and words into an enriching and inspiring story. I would highly recommend this story to readers of Womens and Christian Fiction.
