The Lost Husband

The Lost Husband by Katherine Center

My rating:

3 stars—I liked it.

My thoughts:

I am a Katherine Center fan. I like her voice. This was a good story. I liked the characters developing throughout.  My only complaint would be that the story wraps up too quickly and neatly. The relationships in this one had a distance, too shiny…

Description from Goodreads.com:

“After the sudden loss of her husband in a car crash, Libby Moran falls on hard times-so hard, in fact, that she's forced to move in with her hyper-critical mother. There, sleeping on the pull-out sofa so her two children can share the guest room, she can't stop longing for the life she had. So when a letter arrives from Libby's estranged aunt offering her a job and a place to live on her goat farm, Libby jumps at the opportunity. But starting over is never easy. With an aunt who is nothing like she imagined, a shaggy farm manager with a tragic past, a psychic at the feed store who claims to be able to contact the dead, and a bully at her daughter's school, country life isn't at all what Libby expected. But it also offers her what no other place can: A chance to define the good life for herself. A chance to piece together the mysteries of her own past. A chance, even, at love. And, finally, a chance to bring herself, and her family, back to life.”
