A Love Resurrected
(2026)(The first book in the Second Chance Love in Glory Falls series)
A novel by Dora Hiers
After nearly four decades of building his cybersecurity company, Kalen Maclaren finally hands over the reins to a trusted long-time investor, with billions of dollars to show for those interminable eighteen-hour-days hunched over a computer but little else. His wife gave up on him a few years into their marriage, accusing him of cheating and loving his job over her. He regrets letting Tarah walk away without telling her how much she meant to him and not making the changes to be a better husband. At fifty-eight, he's not sure he has enough in the tank to start something new. So when a buddy invites Kalen to spend the holidays at his cabin in Glory Falls, their college stomping grounds, to consider his options, he accepts, unsure what he'll do in the sleepy mountain town. When he runs into his ex-wife there, life--and the town--become way more exciting.
What is her husband doing in Glory Falls? When she left him--did he even realize she left or that she never filed for divorce?--Tarah Maclaren fled to the small town, needing a soft place to decompress. Her heart belonged to Kalen, but over the years he'd become so engrossed in building his business that some nights he slept in his office or so he claimed. Since returning to Glory Falls, she held out hope that he'd return to the place where their love began, but as years passed, she chose to create the life she wanted without him, rich in faith, love, family, and friends. Her husband might not love her, but she was surrounded by people who did.
As the small town works its holiday charm, Kalen discovers that a little downtime is not a bad thing, love is worth fighting for, and life is worth living especially with Tarah at his side. But Tarah seems content with the life she built on her own. Is there room for him? Are Kalen's newfound faith, his steadfast love, and his meager attempts to change, strong enough to resurrect their marriage or is he too late?
