A review by talknerdybookblog
Sandy by Melanie Moreland

3.0

Details:
• FMC is 57
• MMC is 59
• it’s been 1 year since FMC’s husband passed
• it’s been 4 years since MMC’s wife passed
• Both the Hero and Heroine met the other’s spouse–they knew each other when they were still married

Safety: Safe

• Both are widowed and talk to each other about their dead spouses
• No OW/OW: the FMC has been celibate for 4 years and MMC has been celibate for 6 years
• No cheating
• Heroine DOES push away
• The Hero and Heroine ARE briefly separated


Possible Triggers:

• Heroine is dealing with the loss of her husband and coming to terms with the idea that moving on doesn’t mean forgetting
• Discussion and allusions to the Heroine’s husband’s death by MS
• NO abuse


Ending:
HEA
