A Time to Love

by Irene Hannon

Falling in love isn’t in her plans…
unless one special man can convince her otherwise.

Samantha Reynolds is a no-strings kind of gal who just wants to play the field and have fun. Or at least that’s the image she presents to the world. But the savvy real estate agent with the brash, take-charge manner has a softer side—and a secret wish for a happily-ever-after with a kind, decent man who will cherish her…even if that dream has zero chance of coming true.

Widower Brad Matthews isn’t looking for love, especially with someone like Sam. In no way does she fit the image of a minister’s girlfriend, let alone wife. But something tells him that beneath the spunky, sassy front she projects lies a caring, sensitive heart. And as sparks begin to fly, he’s determined to find out if that’s true—because he’s falling hard.

While the odds seem stacked against a woman with a party-girl reputation and a minister who walks the straight and narrow, might their pairing turn out to be a match made in heaven?

In A Time to Love, bestselling author Irene Hannon gives readers a story filled with hope, heart, and happily-ever-afters.

Reviews

[Margaret Nelson]

I enjoyed this book. You don't have to read the series in order, but the characters do overlap, and you'll probably enjoy them all more if you do read in order. It had been awhile since I read the first one, and I'd forgotten a lot, but thoroughly enjoyed this one anyway. Characters are great, and issues dealt with are well done. I always enjoy Hannon's books like this.

Heartwarming and So Encouraging

We don't always know what's best for us because many times we are focused on external appearances. Sam projected what she was not, but eventually Brad found out.

If you love a good, clean romance, you need to read an Irene Hannon book. They are great with a little twist. A Time to Love was excellent, another great romance by Irene Hannon. Theresa Plummer did another great job as the narrator.

This is the best of the series, so far. Love this sweet story. Will finish the series.

Another great book

I also read this book in 1 day. I couldn't put it down. It moved in ways I didn't expect. But it was very good. Can't wait to start the next one.

Sweet, gentle romance with second chances ending!
