Summary Description from Simon and Schuster

From New York Times bestselling author Julia London comes the passionate, suspenseful novel based on Guiding Light, the 2007 Emmy Award-winning daytime drama.

When his true love Tammy Winslow died saving his life, Jonathan Randall had only one reason left for existing: his baby daughter Sarah. But Sarah's great-grandfather, powerful millionaire Alan Spaulding, was obsessed with bringing her up himself. Faking his death, Jonathan fled Springfield, leaving only his mother Reva Shayne aware he and Sarah were still alive.

After being on the run for months, Jonathan comes to the sleepy town of Tourmaline, California, with no intention of staying. But ten-month-old Sarah seems strangely happy here, and Jonathan himself feels an inexplicable pull toward the town. It's almost as if Tammy's ghost were whispering to him that he should stay for a while. But life is hard for a bad boy trying to turn good, until a local young woman comes into his life.

Aubrey Cross isn't quite sure what attracts her to this stranger in Tourmaline. Perhaps it's his dark good looks; perhaps it's because she too has always felt as if she doesn't belong in Tourmaline, even though her father is the popular town sheriff. Aubrey alone knows that this pillar of the community is in reality a sadistic abuser.

And, of course, with a past like Jonathan's, it's no surprise that life doesn't stay peaceful in Tourmaline for long. Sheriff Zeke Cross is sure there are some secrets buried, and he's not going to rest until he uncovers them. Can Reva protect Jonathan and Sarah before they're discovered by the dangerous Alan Spaulding?

Featuring some of Guiding Light's favorite characters, Jonathan's Story is the passionate tale of how Jonathan may have finally found a second chance for true love...but who knows better than Jonathan how quickly everything you love can be ripped away from you?

This is just stupid stupid stupid!!!

Thanks for posting ljacks13.

Uh, yeah...if TPTB have the Jammy fans in mind for their main audience, this is not the way to go.

I was okay with the book before but what's all this effort about? It's not like Pelphrey's coming back full-time.

This IS the way to go for Jon and Tammy fans.

With Tammy's support, Jon should carry on with his life. She would not want him sitting back.

Just my opinion.

It may be what Tammy wants but the way they have been writing Jonathan's character for the past couple of years, there's just no way Jonathan would be ready to move on so quickly.

Wrong! Most Jammys fans hate this. What kind of man mourns for his wife for six months then moves on with a another woman. Total BS.

Well lets see, my wifes grandfather was married for 50 years, lost his wife in Feb and was remarried in June.

My mother died in December and my dad was dating in April....

I guess my family is full of morons!

My father died in January and my mother was with a married man by April...MORON yes!! I just think it has something to do with how much the couple loved! I would never think about moving on with anyone so soon after "the love of my life" died!

And everyone deals with grief differently.

Not fair, or nice to call someone a moron.

In regards to your first post above mine:

Well lets see, my wifes grandfather was married for 50 years, lost his wife in Feb and was remarried in June.

My mother died in December and my dad was dating in April....

I guess my family is full of morons!

I don't see where anyone used "moron" and if it is there I apologize. However in my post I was referring to my OWN mother as a Moron, something that I assure you I can do!

Hmmm..in the cases just mentioned, you gotta question just how much the living really did love the person who just died. A few lucky ones might be able to fall in love with someone so soon after the love of their lives just died but most people would just not be looking for someone new. Being married for 50 years is not the same as truly loving someone. Many arranged marriages can last that long but is real love there?

Not that I'm saying that Kwing's relatives were in arranged marriages but I'm just trying to make a point about how losing a spouse can mean something completely different from losing who you consider to be a soulmate.
