Now that Jennifer Graham has accepted and adjusted to her life at Fairlawn Funeral home, she can almost see a future in the works. Making the decision to study and become a funeral home director, Jennifer begins to fall into a rut. Studying, taking care of the boys and managing the funeral home has taken a toll. Just when she realizes she needs a break, Jennifer is invited to a book club.

While at the book club, Jennifer meets a young woman by the name of McLane Larson. Somewhat shy and withdrawn, Jennifer eventually gets her to open up and learns that her husband is in the military and is currently serving overseas. 

As McLane grows more and more comfortable with Jennifer, details of her life begin to unfold which to Jennifer’s surprise, has a direct effect on Jennifer and her life.

McLane soon is faced with a decision that forces Jennifer to choose between their newly founded friendship and her own morals and beliefs.  Seeking God more than ever before, Jennifer questions whether she can still salvage their friendship or if McLane’s decision weighs too much for her to bear.

SHE ALWAYS WORE RED by Angela Hunt, is part of the Fairlawn series. With a great first book, the second in the series is just as fabulous. Ms. Hunt creates real life scenarios, which as a reader will take you right in the midst of the characters’ mind while they are facing hard decisions. Wonderful pick up from the first book and hoping for a third!
