Love in Complete Sentences by Mary E Mitchell
Life is a challenge for thirty-six year-old Kate Cavanaugh, high school guidance counselor to a motley group of at-risk students. Widowed two years ago, Kate's storybook life has vanished - daughter Charlotte, once a sweet girl, has morphed into an angry, tattooed, teen; and Hunter, her four-year-old, keeps his feelings sealed tight inside and a ketchup bottle clasped to his heart. When a tragedy occurs at the Alan B. Shepard High School, it's Kate who finds herself in need of counsel. What she does next catapults her and her family on a trajectory into space - toward understanding, forgiveness and healing.
"Get out the tissues, but plan on reading this impressive, stirring novel straight through" - Kirkus Reviews. "Mitchell pitches life's hardball themes of death, grief, and redemption with piercing clarity and magically interlaces romance and humour into her family saga." - Library Journal (Starred Review)"
