Читать книгу Cody's Come Home - Mary Sullivan - Страница 4

Dear Reader,

I’m fascinated with the passage of time and how it affects people, drawn in by whether they become better or worse once they enter the wide-open world of adulthood.

What happens to all of our bright promise as teenagers? Do we utilize it and grow into fine human beings? Or might we lose our way?

My hero, Cody, has lost his way and doesn’t have a clue how to return to the young boy who had such huge potential.

This is a redemption story about a couple who were not-quite-a-couple in high school, but had tremendous affection and respect for each other. My heroine, Aiyana, was too young for a relationship when Cody left to attend college. How could she have known he would come home ten years later as a lost stranger?

The second I wrote about these two adolescents in Always Emily, I loved both characters and knew I had to write their grown-up story. Cody was a great guy. What, I wondered, would happen if life changed him and left him cynical and unhappy?

Aiyana, the young girl who idolized him, wants to help him now as an adult, but has problems of her own. Maybe Cody isn’t the only one in this new relationship who needs help.

I truly enjoyed finding Cody’s and Aiyana’s happy ending and absolutely adored writing about Aiyana’s charming little daughter!

I love to hear from readers. Contact me through www.marysullivanbooks.com.
