From loss breeds new life.
Penelope Monroe married on impulse and her heart had been broken by Adam Monroe’s lies. Pregnant she wonders how she will survive, alone, with her baby.
Brock Romero held Adam Monroe when he died in combat. Now released from the Army he makes it his priority to find Adam’s wife and share with her his last words.
On the verge of making the same mistake twice, Penelope must trust her heart—especially when new lies are uncovered.
Book two in The Three Mrs. Monroes series features Penelope, wife number three. The youngest of the three Mrs. Monroes, Penelope and Adam hadn't been married very long. But she was foremost in his mind when he died, because he entrusted his friend Brock to find Penelope and tell her that Adam loved her.
Wounded in the same attack that killed Adam, Brock finds solace in Penelope's photo and the idea that he will finally meet her. By the time he does, he's practically in love with her.
Penelope, Amelia and Vivian have realized that they must do something to support themselves, because what Adam left isn't enough for the three of them to live. They decide on starting a daycare and begin renovating Adam's grandmother's old house. When Brock arrives to finally speak to Penelope, he finds that he can't leave her and he is soon drawn into this odd family.
I enjoyed the interactions between the wives and the tenuous friendships that are formed and begin to solidify.
Second in the series, the story ends with the point of continuing in Vivian's story. The books really need to be read in order as they build on each other.
