Lightning Strikes Twice
In 1977 he promised to fly her to Montreal. He didn't show. Fifty years later, he walks into her diner and orders a slice of pie.
Mabel Grundy has run the diner on the Hemlock Hollow green for half a century. She makes the best pie in Vermont and the worst coffee on the Eastern Seaboard, and she has never once told anyone why she stopped in the Hollow on her way to Montreal.
Everett Vane is a thunderbird, and the storms have followed him all his life. He's the man a twenty-five-year-old waitress was supposed to run away with at dawn, fifty years ago. He never came.
Now he's back, with a scar, an explanation, and a ring he's carried for fifty years. Mabel says she's too old for explanations. But sometimes lightning really does strike twice.
Lightning Strikes Twice is a tender, funny, later-in-life second-chance monster romance with a love story fifty years in the making, a sharp-tongued heroine in her seventies and a devoted silver-haired hero, a diner, a lot of pie, and a flight over the storm to Montreal, a whole town that finally gets to take care of the woman who took care of them, a closed door, and a guaranteed happily-ever-after.
