Love Lives On

Karen is reunited with her college sweetheart after thirty years apart only to learn a step-son she’s never met has filed a multi-million dollar lawsuit against her for back child support. Her decision to fight the shadows from her past puts her marriage and life in jeopardy. Karen Williams was fifty-four and divorced for so long she’d given up hope for that special marriage everyone talked about, but few probably had experienced. Then, a year ago, her life changed. Her college sweetheart charged back into her life, acting as if he’d never stopped loving her. He was waiting for her at the altar now as she touched up her makeup in the bride’s room of her church. Karen hurried to apply mascara, but her right hand wouldn’t be still. The mascara pencil hit the table with a soft clunk. Tears followed. Tears from nowhere. A glance into the mirror showed mascara running down both cheeks. What was happening? Was it that feeling of unworthiness that crept in when she least expected it? Couldn’t be. God had forgiven her long ago, but she would never forget what had happened. Second thoughts? Definitely not. She loved Brian and he loved her. He would never do anything to hurt her. Not again.
