Review of "Straight from the Heart" by Tami Hoag

Alas, poor Rebecca Bradshaw is facing that dilmena of what to do when that old boyfriend/girlfriend suddenly appears. She knew baseball player Jace Cooper seven years ago and he'd dropped her like a stone just as she was working up the courage to share her secret with him. Now he shows up at the hospital where she works and wants to get back together. As she helps him through his recovery, she discovers that both of them have changed.

The theme of recapturing a lost romance seems out of place for Tami Hoag, but she carries it off. She gives us strong characters with minds of their own, which is always a treat. Its a slick story supporting a journey through love's many trevails, and the audiobook makes for several enjoyable hours of listening.
