Promise, Texas a romance novel by Debbie Macomber

Debbie Macomber has a great novel with Promise, Texas. She has written several other books with these characters and they were all good. This is probably the last one in the series because it seems to wrap up several stories. She always does a good job about emphasizing the importance of family and that marriage is not a cake walk but takes work, patience, and love to last.




The back of this book only mentions one story when the book has so many different stories that are all tied together. Macomber let you know what is going on in everyone else’s lives that she has previously written about but you do not need to have read those books to see how the characters have grown and evolved to face new problems such as the reappearance of an ex-wife, alzheimers, and impending parenthood. The new story is of Lucas and Annie. Annie’s husband divorced her after a bad car accident left her with scars and Lucas’ wife died from cancer several years before leaving him with 2 small children to raise. These two meet and set up a marriage of convenience. It doesn’t take them long to realize that they are in love and want to make it a real marriage that will last forever. Of course they have to work through the hurt that their previous spouses have eft them with.

I love reading Debbie Macomber’s books because the characters are real people with realistic concerns that are easy to identify with. Happy Reading!

Until next time.......
