On the anniversary of his beloved wife's death, Dr. Michael Everett
receives a letter Hannah had written him.
In it she reminds him of her love and makes one final request. An
impossible request--I want you to marry again. She tells him he
shouldn't spend the years he has left grieving her. And to that end
she's chosen three women she asks him to consider.
First on Hannah's list is her cousin, Winter Adams, a trained chef who
owns a café on Seattle's Blossom Street. The second is Leanne Lancaster,
Hannah's oncology nurse. Michael knows them both. But the third name is
one he's not familiar with--Macy Roth.
Each of these three women has her own heartache, her own private grief.
More than a year earlier, Winter broke off her relationship with another
chef. Leanne is divorced from a man who defrauded the hospital for which
she works. And Macy lacks family of her own, the family she craves, but
she's a rescuer of strays, human and animal. Macy is energetic,
artistic, eccentric--and couldn't be more different from Michael.
During the months that follow, he spends time with Winter, Leanne and
Macy, learning more about each of them...and about himself. Learning
what Hannah already knew. He's a man who needs the completeness only
love can offer. And Hannah's list leads him to the woman who can help
him find it.
