Sara's Promise
Deanna Lynn Sletten
Book Description:
Do you believe in soul mates?
William Grafton had the perfect
life with his lovely wife, Sara, and two teenaged children. But one day his
perfect forever was shattered when Sara died suddenly, leaving him alone to
raise his children and wonder how he would ever get through life without his
soul mate. Five years later, he finds himself looking into a familiar pair of
blue-green eyes that remind him of Sara. The woman is the exact opposite of his
late wife, yet he finds he is drawn to her. But after a few strange
occurrences, he begins to wonder–are these just coincidences or has his Sara
come back to him as she once promised in the form of this new woman?
Annie Paxton doesn't believe in
soul mates or fate. She had watched her father die of a broken heart after her
mother passed away and has since cast away any fairy tale ideas of love. Then
she meets the man who has been haunting her dreams and she begins to see love
in a whole new light. But her dream man is still tied to his deceased wife, and
Annie doesn't know if he will ever be able to break away from his past. As
strange occurrences unfold, Annie wonders if William could ever truly love her
for herself and not for the traits that remind him of Sara.
Were William and Annie brought together by fate, coincidence or by Sara
keeping her promise?

Book Excerpt:
Annie thought of him all the way back to her apartment,
and again as she lay in her bed that night. It's
him. I'm sure of it, she thought. It was obvious he was still heartbroken
over the loss of his wife. She had seen it in his eyes when he spoke of her.
She wasn't sure how long his wife had been gone, but thought how sad it was for
him. He was an attractive, energetic man, and he seemed too young to cling to a
memory. As she drifted off to sleep, she was looking forward to spending the
next day with him.
Across town, as William lay in bed that night, his
thoughts kept returning to Annie. Her energy and her enthusiasm as she
constantly snapped pictures with the camera that hung around her neck had
enchanted him. There was something so familiar about her, something he just
couldn't put his finger on. Her eyes were exactly like his wife's, but other
than that, she was completely different from Sara. All he knew was for the
first time in five years, he'd completely enjoyed his day and was looking
forward to tomorrow.
