Description

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTELLER

In love for the first time, a son’s decisions about the future divides his family in this fearless and thought-provoking novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Baxter Family novels—now a TV series.

When eighteen-year-old Tommy Baxter declares to his family that he wants to be a police officer after graduation, his mother, Reagan, won’t hear of it. After all, she’s still mourning the death of her own father on September 11 and she’s determined to keep her son safe from danger. But Tommy’s father, Luke, is proud of Tommy’s decision. He would make a kind and compassionate cop.

Meanwhile, Tommy is in love for the first time. His sweet relationship with Annalee Miller is almost too good to be true. Tommy begins seriously thinking about the far off day when he can ask her to marry him but she hasn’t been feeling well. Tests reveal the unthinkable.

While his girlfriend begins the fight of her life, Tommy is driven to learn more about the circumstances surrounding his birth and the grandfather he never knew. Secrets come to light that rock Tommy’s world, and he becomes determined to spend his future fighting crime and bringing peace to the streets. Or is this just his way to fight a battle he cannot win—the one facing Annalee?

Blending romance and family drama, Truly, Madly,Deeply shows us that, in the shadow of great loss, the only way to live with passion is truly, madly, deeply.

    I really loved this book, it really grabs your heart! This the story of Tommy Baxter, the oldest of Luke and Reagan Baxter, and his high school girlfriend Annalee. Annalee’s battle with cancer, and the way that everyone, even high school students, pray for her. I really love the way everyone rallies around this girl, and Tommy! What a wonderful story of real life battles that go along every day. There are the police involved in parts of this book, it’s great that they are respected for the sacrifices they make every day for us! God bless the police officers and the doctors that are in every part of our lives! Definitely recommend this book!
