When her husband of thirty-five years runs off to find himself and her mother dies, sheltered Southern belle Carley Love Wells is left a broken hot mess and on her own for the first time in her life. Before she can get a good footing, husband Jackson unexpectedly returns, seeking forgiveness and asking, "Can you love me anyway?" The answer to that question thrusts Carley Love along a path full of unexpected turns and hard choices-and with amusing wit and firm opinions, she writes it all down in a journal inherited from her mother. On the pages, she begins to see her life in a new light-to find she is stronger than she knew, that foolish mistakes are part of living, but so is abundant grace to cover them-and that she must let go of the hurts and regrets of the past in order to move forward toward a love that is far more than she ever dared hope or dream.
