Forever Friends: Home to the River Series, #1

By Jannette Spann

FOREVER FRIENDS 

"Well, Millie. If you've got a hankering to make babies, I'll do my part."

"I ain't hankered to make a baby in forty years."

"Just saying…"

Age is a state of mind. Then again, widowhood is a fact of life Millie Farnsworth has learned to accept. Add a porch swing, sweet tea, and a handsome widower who loves her chocolate cake, and she's also decided that living alone isn't so bad.

When Hank Cason, her cake-loving man, decides he wants to marry her, she must choose between her single lifestyle or that of being a wife again.

Millie loves Hank, but he comes with a ready-made family, and she's never had kids of her own. At her age, can she adjust to being a wife, mother, and even a grandmother? Better yet, will his children accept her into their tight-knit clan?
