Alexis White just wants
to help put things back together. As a pediatrician, she returns to her beloved
city of New Orleans to treat children affected by Hurricane Katrina. Although
the financial rewards are small, she is glad to be home, in a place where she
can restore her soul and hopefully mend her broken heart. After recently ending
an engagement, Alexis secretly wonders how her life would have turned out if she
had married Reggie, her first love.
Reggie Morgan is a man
in need of mending also. As a successful football star, he should be enjoying
his life. Instead, he’s trying to end his marriage to the less-than-virtuous
Nikki, who doesn’t even bother to hide her cheating anymore. But Nikki is not
ready to let go, and she’s using their son as a bargaining chip.
Against the backdrop of
a city still struggling to rebuild, Alexis and Reggie rekindle their
relationship. Their love has survived the years apart, but will this couple be
able to withstand the test of time? And when Alexis finds herself in a painful
love triangle, will she be able to use her heart to make the right decision?
Putting it Back
Together is a story of life and love, reminding us that neither comes
easily. |
