Love's Grand Sweet Song

Summary

In 1915, waitress Francie Forrester has a voice like an angel, but few people in her small Midwestern town have ever heard it, outside of church. Between working and keeping an eye on her irresponsible mother and younger brother, who has time for music? Her misty daydream of becoming an opera singer must remain exactly that—a dream—until a new friend unexpectedly sets her on a rocky path leading to Chicago’s glittering opera stage. To rise from slinging spaghetti to singing grand opera takes a lot of courage and hard work, but Francie’s up to the challenge. At least, she hopes she is.

Law student Henry Jasper is torn between his strong feelings for Francie and his sense of duty toward his family. After caving to his father’s unreasonable demands, he despairs of ruining his one shot at real happiness. But just when a chance meeting reignites his hope, the dark winds of the Great War threaten to blow it out again.

Filled with Jennifer Lamont Leo’s signature charm and masterful storytelling, this heartwarming historical second-chance romance will leave your heart singing Love’s Grand Sweet Song.
