    From bestselling author Curtiss Ann Matlock comes a funny and heartwarming look at a woman facing midlife, marriage, and moving on. When her husband of thirty-five years runs off to find himself and her mother dies, sheltered Southern belle Carley Love Wells is left a broken hot mess and on her own for the first time in her life. Before she can get a good footing, husband Jackson unexpectedly returns, seeking forgiveness and asking, "Can you love me anyway?" The answer to that question thrusts Carley Love along a path of surprising turns and hard choices - and with amusing wit and firm opinions, she writes it all down in a journal inherited from her mother. On the pages, she begins to see her life in a new light - to find she is a stronger woman than she knew, that foolish mistakes are part of living, but so is abundant grace to cover them - and that she must let go of the past in order to move forward. She's alone now, hurt, and fearing her future. Can Carley Love free herself of an old broken love, and dare to reach toward one that is redeemed and reborn, and beyond all she dared hope or dream?

    Going home for Christmas can be risky to the heart. USA Today bestselling author Curtiss Ann Matlock gives readers a story of road trip filled with affectionate wit and heartwarming romance, and the unexpected turns life takes when yearning hearts open to the miracle that is Christmas. Lacey Bryant, the ever-hopeful waitress at Gerald's Truck Stop in Albuquerque, New Mexico, longs to go home for Christmas. It has been eleven years since she ran away from her angry father. Now she yearns to go home and ask forgiveness, and to share with her aging parents the grandchildren they have never seen. But home is all the way across the country, a trip Lacey can't begin to afford as a single mother raising two children alone. Cooper is every inch a Scrooge whose hard knocks in life took away any belief in the glory of Christmas. He definitely wants no part of traveling with two children. But he has promised to help out a friend, and he can't manage to tell Lacey no. So he loads the woman and her brood into his eighteen-wheeler and carries them along with him on his trip down Interstate 40. As the miles roll under the big truck's wheels, it turns out to be Lacey and her children who are bringing Cooper along with them, on a journey that takes them all home to the heart. "Matlock has a gift for telling what she calls, 'the secret lives of ordinary people, ' " Detroit Free Press
