The Secrets of Love Story Bridge

by Phaedra Patrick

Widowed single father Mitchell Fisher avoids romance and spends his workdays cutting couples' padlocks from Upchester's love-story bridge. When a woman falls from the bridge, he rescues her but she disappears before he can learn more than that she has been missing for nearly a year. Mitchell joins her spirited sister Liza to discover who she is while anonymous letters left on the bridge awaken his own habit of writing to his late wife. Hopeful and gently mysterious, this novel suits readers who enjoy grieving fathers, love letters, quirky civic landmarks, second chances, and guarded people learning that renewed affection need not erase earlier love.
