Glimpse Eternity
by Ryan Jo Summers
Kasey Griffin is determined to prove a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis isn’t going to ruin her life or define her expectations. She is dedicated to her pregnant sister, her pets and operating her bookstore, ‘The Next Chapter’. She has everything she needs to have a full and satisfying life–the daily challenges of her condition notwithstanding.
Then hunky musician Ben Salem rolls into town. Ben’s subtle charm quickly reminds Kasey she is more than a woman with a disease, she is also a woman with a heart. And Ben wants it.
Will Ben still desire her once he learns the terrible details of her condition?
Music and books! Two of my favorite things embodied in the careers of the hero and heroine Of Glimpse Eternity. Author Ryan Jo Summers started off on the right foot for a music-bibliophile like me. You can’t go wrong with that combination.
Glimpse Eternity is a sweet, well-written, and well-edited novella/novelette that tackles the subject of MS. I have to admit I don’t know much about MS, but I came away from this story appreciating how difficult this disease must be. In spite of her physical shortcomings, the heroine is plucky, determined and yet loveable. The hero the kind of man who stands by his woman side, even if she doesn’t want him to. The story-behind-the-story that Ryan Jo tells on Wednesday Writers made this story come even more alive to me.
I loved this novella/novelette and devoured it in one sitting. I think you will too.
