A novelist who can't write...
A doctor who won't practice...
A world moving on with or without them...
Welcome back to the multiethnic new South, to Savannah and Tybee Island, two of USA Today bestselling author Jan Thompson's favorite coastal Georgia towns by the Atlantic Ocean. Going about their daily lives while attending the Riverside Chapel church, a group of Christians meet the loves of their lives. What is God's will for each of these Christians?
In Book 7, we return to the Savannah Senior Living Resort on Tybee Island, where centenarian retired Great-grandpa Hiram Jacobs waits for the day God takes him home to heaven...
The Reverend Hiram Jacobs believes he is finally dying, and he wants his memoirs published before his one hundred and fourth birthday.
Well, Hunter has his own book deadlines to juggle, and can't Great-grandpa Hiram wait a few more months?
Unfortunately, Hunter's writing career tanks. He loses his publishing contract since his books haven't sold enough copies, and his agent fails to find a new publisher for his old manuscripts. His writing well has dried up, and he has been unable to write anything new for months.
Hunter sells his cottage in the Swiss Alps to pay off his debts, and flies home to coastal Georgia.
He wants to talk to Great-grandpa Hiram about his memoirs, hoping that it might reboot his writing career.
To Hunter's surprise, Great-grandpa has found a new writing assistant, someone who isn't even in the Jacobs family.
And Hunter is required to hand over everything he has worked on for seven years to her, an outsider who has barely known Great-grandpa for a year.
Stunned, Hunter feels stuck.
Renting a campground yurt on Tybee Island, Priyanka Patel is far away from the surgical centers at pediatric hospitals and from that nightmare of a medical mission trip more than two years ago.
Yet, even here, there's that faint scent of a defunct career, too dark, too painful for her to revisit.
These days, Priyanka would rather cheer up the elderly residents of the Savannah Senior Living Resort by bringing them freshly-cut flowers, singing and praying with them, and listening to some of them tell sad stories about their children who never come to visit anymore. She spends mornings at the florist and afternoons at the SSLR, walking with the seniors who can, and wheeling them around if they cannot.
Pastor Hiram is Priyanka's favorite patient - ah, friend.
The centenarian is losing his memory bit by bit, and the sooner Priyanka writes down everything about his life for his posterity, the better. His great-grandson is supposed to be compiling all his sermons, and if he'd hurry up, those can be published before Pastor Hiram dies.
Still, perhaps she should have turned down Pastor Hiram's request for her to help him complete his memoirs.
And yet, her heart gets the better of her, and Priyanka says yes to helping an elderly gentleman fulfill his lifelong wish.
When life moves on and time runs out, Priyanka finds herself thrown together with Hunter, trying to catch up with the world around them that is moving faster than they can handle. Should they press forward and go along with it, or should they shrink back and return to their comfort zones? Or is there another way they haven't thought of?
Are you new to the Savannah Sweethearts series? While each book has its own story, you might enjoy getting to know the churchgoers in the entire series, starting from the prequel, Ask You Later, and Book 1, Know You More, two books that kick off the entire series.
Happy reading!
