Summary: A Romance Not Just for Romance Readers
Comment: The Second Coming of Lucy Hatch is what I'd call a literary romance. You probably won't find it in the Romance section of your bookstore; at least, I didn't in mine. But it's got all the ingredients: girl meets boy, they fall in love, but will they stay together? What gives it that "literary" stature is Marsha Moyer's voice. She knows how to tell a story; she knows how to pull you into the character's head and heart. The book flows like warmed molasses. I grinned; I even cried. A good read, most definitely. Helen Ginger, Editor of Doing It Write.

Summary: Difficult to categorize
Comment: It was difficult to categorize this novel. On the one hand, as I was reading it, I kept thinking "romance", which is a genre I never read. But as I finished it, I thought "not REALLY a romance".
What sets this novel apart from a romance (girl has tragedy in her life, meets a guy, falls in love, tries not to succumb, gives in, lives happily ever after) is the writing, both its quality and style. The author writes lovingly of her characters and never resorted to sappiness, even though the plot was very predictable.
I also felt that this book gave a fairly accurate depiction of life in eastern Texas...the remote ranch/farm life and its daily grind as well as life in a very small town in the same area. Moyer wrote of these places as though she had been there, done that.
The author also gave a good picture of life at the heart of a kind and loving (sometime smothering) family who surrounded Lucy and allowed her to grieve as she needed to do and supported her in her time of greatest need with unconditional love.
I look forward to another novel by this author.

Summary: What a Perfect Book!
Comment: I'd give this book six stars if I could. Marsha Moyer has a real talent for telling a story...and Lucy's story is well-worth the effort to read. After Ash Farrell comes tumbling into her newly-widowed life, Lucy Hatch is turned upside down! GREAT READING!
