Puzzling, isn't it?

This last week I completed my seventh novel of Tamera Alexander.  I believe, she has officially moved into the number one spot.  My new favourite author.  This last book is titled Beyond This Moment.

I blogged about a different book of Tamera's here that I read many months ago.    She has an incredible way of touching my heart from her stories.  I wonder if I ever get a chance to meet her in person if we would be kindred spirits.

The story takes place in the same mountain town of Timber Ridge in 1876. This love story is between the local Sheriff and the new teacher arriving from Georgia.  Only the young teacher is harbouring a deep secret.  One that she can't keep hidden for long. Even though she knows the truth will be revealed in due time, she never expected to meet a Sheriff who will challenge the choices she's made.

The main characters in Alexander's book are caught in a dichotomous mix of emotion and rational thought.  (Italics represents an inside joke - you will need to read the story to figure it out).  Sometimes when we make poor choices in our lives
