    About this ebook

    Holly Fisher opens her door one day and finds her estranged sister Hannah standing there with a glassy look and her nine-month old baby on her hip.  Before Holly knows what is happening, Hannah has left her baby with Holly and disappeared.  Three months later, fresh out of rehab for addiction to painkillers, Hannah shows up sober, contrite, and wanting her son back.  But Holly is in love with the baby and not willing to give him up to the mother who abandoned him.  

    Into the middle of this extraordinary conflict between two sisters walks a lonesome cowboy, Wyatt Clark (Summer of Two Wishes) who knows a thing or two about childcare and fractured families.   He’s had his own troubles and has stayed away from women the last couple of years, but he can’t resist Holly and the baby.  But when Holly is delivered a devastating blow and returns the baby to his mother, Holly is too distraught to continue her relationship with Wyatt.  It will take an extraordinary turn from Hannah to bring Holly and Wyatt together so that they both may find the happiness that has eluded them.

      Good light romance. Plot develops well, resolution a bit too easy. Look for others by author

      a light at winters end by julia londonHannah who's heavily been taking drugs has left her son with Holly telling her that her husband has left her and sheis leaving (going into rehab). Holly loves the baby even though it's a disruption of her life. Hannah's husband won't comeget the baby either, tells her she can still write her songs and handle it.Holly heads back to the house where her mom lived, she left it all to her. She meets her neighbor while trying to take care ofMason and to continue with her writing of songs.Wyatt is a helpful neighbor=checking on her chimney, gas oven, fences, etche gets weekend visits with his daughter and they have playdates and become very well acquainted with oneanother. Her sister is going through rehab and seems to be healing.Through their struggles Holly takes his advice and furthers her songwriting skills.It is made all complete by the end with some turnabouts.I rate this a 5 as so many things are brought up and dealt with that only a strong charactercould achieve.
    • 4/5
      Well, this wasn't my favorite novel, but, all in all, it was really a decent read. I think my bit of unhappiness with this novel, comes from the fact that it is a sequel and I failed to read the first one. That being said, Julia London IS a talented author and one who can really pull her readers into the novel. On more than one occasion, I felt as if it was me falling for hunky cowboy Wyatt Clark. I felt like it was me who wanted to mend his broken heart and fall in love with him. The problem I had with Holly was, she was a songwriter. Me....NO WAY. So it was really hard to feel like Holly when she was in song writing mode. But, when Wyatt entered the picture, oh man. All I wanted to do was hug him and tell him it was okay! He was such a wonderfully created character! He really added the depth to this story. I do give this book recommendation with 4 stars. The characters are blended, the plot line is awesome, there's just the right amount of smiling humor, and the romance is sweet. I will, however, recommend to you, unlike what I did, that you read the first book, Summer of Two Wishes. I do have Summer of Two Wishes here to be read, and had I realized before hand on reading Light At Winter's End that it was the first book, I would have read it first.
