My Grandpa's Second Wife — Lois Jean Thomas

Set in northern Indiana and southwest Michigan during the era of the Coronavirus pandemic, MY GRANDPA'S SECOND WIFE is a story that embraces diversity, with love reaching across cultural, racial, religious, and generational divides. Mercedes Maldonado, the child of a Caucasian mother and a long ago deported Mexican father, struggles in her marriage with her aristocratic Mexican husband. When she experiences an uncanny reconnection with a step-grandmother from an Amish background, whom she hasn't seen since she was four years old, their brief relationship brings much-needed healing to both of their lives.
