Fourth St. Joseph medical romance is a winner

In Vancouver, Canada, Dr. Michael Forsythe and his spouse Polly have not recovered from the death of their beloved nine-year old daughter from brain cancer. Instead, Michael buries himself in his medical practice and Polly just seem to go deeper into depression. After thirteen joyful years of marriage, their relationship seems buried along side their beloved child. Fourteen months later, their marriage is on the brink when the Forsythes learn that they are broke due to their finance manager embezzling a fortune from them. Polly is painting her mother's house when her co-worker falls and breaks his leg. She agrees to take in the moody four-year old daughter of her painting partner, whom she immensely dislikes. However, due to the intrusion of this lonely little girl, Michael and Polly begin to discover what really made their relationship work. Do they have the courage to try again? The fourth St. Joseph medical romance is a warm relationship novel that centers on adult grief when a beloved child dies. The story line is captivating, melancholy, and uplifting. Readers will feel the deep hurt, recovery, and a catharsis as the four adults (Michael, Polly, her sister, and her mother) poorly cope with the devastation of a loss that none can understand. Bobby Hutchison has turned her medical romance series into some of the best tales of the nineties.Harriet Klausner
