Description

Some loves outlast every ending — if only we are brave enough to let them begin again.

For thirty years, the friendship between Josephine Bhaer and Theodore Laurence has survived almost everything: a rejected proposal, two marriages, the deaths of those they loved most, and the daily noise and grace of life at Plumfield. It has always been enough. They have always made sure of it.

But a decade after the events of Jo’s Boys, grief arrives again — and with it, a question neither of them has allowed themselves to ask. Among children grown and gone and returned, and the memory of everyone they have ever loved and lost, Jo and Laurie must decide at last what to do with what has always been between them.

Your Heart to Hold is a story about grief, friendship, and the lives we dare to build from what remains.
