Book description
It takes a lot of work to plan a wedding--and even more to save a
marriage--but in Valentine, Oklahoma, there's always someone to help you
keep your chin up. Emma Cole's son is getting married, and she's
determined to make everything perfect--even if that means asking her
estranged husband to come home and pretend they're still together. John
may be an imperfect husband, but he's a devoted dad. He's happy to
oblige Emma--especially since he didn't really much like living apart
from her anyway. Now he wants a second chance. As Emma sorts through the
mess of her own marriage, she puts her heart into planning Valentine's
wedding of the century. But there's one big problem: the bride's
ambitious mother wants more for her daughter than marriage to a
small-town boy. As the wedding approaches, the many meanings of love,
commitment and happiness capture the hearts of folks in town. And
surrounded by the warmth and spirit of her neighbors, Emma starts to see
new beginnings instead of endings. It takes a lot of work to plan a
