Left at the altar, a young woman opens a used wedding dress boutique to sell the one-of-a-kind dress she never actually wore and the dream of happily-ever-ever she can’t seem to let go of.
Daisy’s heart was broken when the man she loved jilted her at the altar and she is forced to do something with her much-loved wedding dress — a luscious concoction of tulle and chiffon that seemed to whisper her name when it rustled. She opens a secondhand wedding dress boutique, hoping to ease her own heartache by giving other “rejected wedding dresses” a second chance to bring happiness. and to hopefully say goodbye to her own dress. Daisy lovingly sews a tiny blue heart into every dress she sells — a heart blessed by Father Laurent, a retired Episcopal priest. When Father Laurent suffers a near-fatal heart attack, his brooding, recently divorced son arrives with plans to take his ailing father away, and a contest of wills begins between two stubborn and hurting souls that will ultimately change both their lives.
“In this sweet contemporary romance, Meissner explores one woman’s response to rejection and hurt… The ending is well told if conventional, with all the loose ends neatly tied up, which should please fans of happily ever after romance novels.”
