"Somerset: A Time to Love", by Gratiana Lovelace (2017): Wattpad Description/Prologue
Life can be funny sometimes--strange, not humorous. Well, not strange, but perhaps unexpected. You go along in life thinking that you are perfectly happy--or at least content. And then, something happens or you meet someone--and everything changes. Hopefully, that change is for the better. And though we may not have sought love--or we stopped hoping for it--sometimes love has a way of finding us, when the time to love is right.
And does devoting oneself to a life of religious service to others, proscribe that a man cannot experience all of life's joys that having a wife and having a family can bring? Does god require total sacrifice of Earthly love as a measure of spiritual devotion? Must a man choose between his god and his love? Or is romantic love possible for anyone, if we open our eyes and hearts to it?
Ecclesiates 3 :1-9 (KJV excerpts) [(2)]
"To every thing there is a season, and a time for every purpose under the heavens:
A time to be born, and a time to die; ...
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;...
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;" ...
And yes, there is, a time to love.
Author's note, July 01, 2017: I began writing my original contemporary romance "Somerset: A Time to Love" in 2014, working on it off and on over the years. And now, I feel that it is this story's turn to be serialized and shared with you. In part, because I like to rotate between sharing period historical fiction and contemporary present day romances. So this story is in the contemporary romance category. I hope that you will enjoy it. Cheers! Gratiana Lovelace ;->
