The Promise of New Love

 

by Kate Finnemore from the July 20, 2020 issue

Tagline: After her daughter sets her up for a romantic date at the lake, Erin is unsure of whether she's ready to try love again...until a sign changes her mind.

Observations: Who doesn't love pint-sized matchmakers? Not me! I loved how the kids connived together to get their parents to meet. The lake and the rowboat contributed to the romantic setting. I mean, come on...a man rowing you in a boat? Classic romance. I also adored how Finnemore used the weather as a metaphor for Erin's life...she'd gone through some rough times (husband's death), but the clouds eventually clear (3 years pass) and you might find a rainbow (this new guy!), if you're lucky.

Wonderful story that gave me chills.

Loved this story also. The cute setup by the kids and such a classic, wonderful romantic setting. Another writer who did a great job.
