Earth Angel — Eileen Hehl

The moment she opened the door to the man who'd called about buying her collection of vintage 45 rpm records, Kathryn Stuart recognized her high school heartthrob from the class of '57. Luckily, Jamie didn't recognize her; the last thing Kathryn wanted was to bring back the past. Widowed since Vietnam, she had her own life now -- a good job selling ad space at the local Danbury, Connecticut newspaper, her home, her children and grandchildren. She'd put Howdy Doody, Dale Evans and the hula hoop behind her thirty-five years ago, and behind her was where they'd stay...

Until Jamie decided to try out one of the records, "just to see how it sounds." The haunting strains of 'Earth Angel' seemed to propel her into his arms... and "just one dance for old times' sake" led to just one friendly kiss. Maybe a little nostalgia wasn't such a bad idea after all, especially if it might mean a second chance to be Jaime Chandler's girl... and maybe even to love again.
