One Way Ticket Home by K.C. Hardy


Days before boarding the plane to Italy for her daughter’s wedding, Julie Whitaker receives an unexpected phone call from her past. The memory of Mark Jennings, a handsome and charming Top Gun pilot, had haunted her for decades. Their fairy tale wedding was everything she’d ever dreamed of, but it quickly turned into her worst nightmare. Starting a new a life without Mark proved to be much harder than Julie had imagined. But in her darkest hour, God revealed Himself in a miraculous way, giving her the strength she needed not only to battle depression, but to face a diagnosis of breast cancer that threatened to cut her life short. Now, amidst the splendor of the Italian Alps, on the eve of her daughter’s wedding, Julie’s thoughts are catapulted back to Mark and the reason for his call. After thirty years, will Julie have a chance to see him once again? And would she even want to? Based on true events, One-Way Ticket Home will take you on an unforgettable journey of love, loss, hope and forgiveness. With grace, candor and an indomitable wit, K.C. Hardy reminds us that it is often in our darkest hours that the strength of the human spirit shines the brightest.

Here is what I thought. .....

I very much enjoyed this book. It was very intriguing and very much a page turner. I enjoy reading a story that is based on a true story and not complete fiction. This story is very touching and emotional. I enjoyed how the story flipped back and forth between two different times. I was very impressed by this book and the way this mother-daughter writing team were able to weave together such a fascinating story. The only negative I  had was the bad language that was sprinkled throughout the book. It wasn't excessive but it's not my cup of tea when reading Christian fiction. This was a great story and I'd be interested to read more by these authors. I received this book from Pump Up Your Book for free.  A positive review was not required.  All opinions are my own.
