Description:
Bestselling author Debbie Macomber continues to delight readers with her heartwarming Heart of Texas series with Return to Promise. Back on familiar ground, Macomber reintroduces us to favorite characters from earlier volumes, including Cal Patterson and his wife, Jane. Married for several years, Jane has severely cut back her medical practice to raise their two small children while Cal continues to ranch. But when Jane and the children take an extended trip to California to nurse her ailing father, Cal becomes the target of an attractive newcomer in town, hot-to-trot Nicole Nelson. Jane returns to Promise as rumors surface about the time Cal spent with Nicole while the cat... uh, Jane... was away. Disagreements and doubts escalate, leading to Jane and Cal's separation, Jane heading back to her parents' home in California with their children. Alone, Cal is forced for the first time in his marriage to think, really think, about what he wants and needs his life to be. The prolific Macomber answers fans' cries for "more, more, more" Promise, Texas, with her true and sometimes painful portrayal of life and love after the initial rush of hormones passes.--Alison Trinkle
