Saturday's Child

What's love got to do with it? Not a damn thing as far as Sara Livingston can see. Girlfriend has serious attitude. Life and love have not been kind. The last thing on her mind is getting into yet another doomed relationship. Sara's got too many other things to deal in her life to even think about love. Like a boss she can't stand, sisters who still treat her like a child, a co-worker that could go postal at any moment and a friend tottering on the brink of destruction. Nor can she forget the loser-from-hell that she's still technically married to but has not seen in three years, so by default, she considers herself a single mother. Still, when her best friend introduces her to not one, but two men, things turn upside down for Sara. First she meets Franklin, a complex brother who says he's looking for a good woman and a chance in life. But she wonders what he's really after. Next, she meets Theo, a widower, who, although seemingly nice enough, has a mistrustful daughter, a resentful teenage son, and is still grieving for his wife of twenty years. Sara feels he may have more baggage than she does. However, both men will impact Sara's life in ways she never imagined. One teaches her the true meaning of love and one teaches her the terror of obsession. When a vicious tragedy strikes, will Sara try to handle it by herself, as usual, or will she lean on the love of a lifetime to help her survive it?Gayle Jackson Sloan is the author of 'Saturday's Child', published 2004 under ISBN 9780974805122 and ISBN 0974805122.
