The Healer's Love Song — Arlene James

Dr. Tate Golden is a playboy with a painful past and a secret present, but his latest romantic target is not about to play his game, despite a strong mutual attraction. For nurse and former soldier Amalie Harter, her faith and her sons are more important than any momentary "happiness" that she might find in Tate's arms. She's already had her heart broken by not one but two faithless men. She's not about to let one get to her, no matter how charming he is. Besides, she has a full life. She has her boys, her career working with injured vets, an avocation as a singer and keyboardist with a crazy popular band, her church, her best friend and renter, JoJo. Her bandmates all agree that Tate Golden is not for her. At first. As Christmas approaches and Tate slowly turns her life upside down, however, she starts to wonder what God is doing. Tate is undergoing his own life-altering changes, but first he has to learn to let go of old loves and old resentments. Letting go is the only way to seize what God has in store for him, but can it truly be God's will if it means death for someone else?
