Like a Love Song
When she finally surrenders her heart, will it be too late?

Susan Quinn, a social worker turned surrogate mom to foster teens, fights to save the group home she's worked hard to build. But now, she faces a dwindling staff, foreclosure, and old heartaches that won't stay buried. Her only hope lies with the last person she'd ever turn to--a brawny handyman with a guitar, a questionable past, and a God he keeps calling Father.

Like a Love Song is a romantic drama about a fiercely loyal woman and some castaway kids who need the courage to believe in a love that never fails.

"Eide writes a touching story about two unlikely heroes who sacrifice themselves to love those who are not loved by others ... This emotional book touches on very tender subjects in a tactful, graceful way that allows readers to understand what is happening without being overwhelmed by it. Eide is a phenomenal writer who once again displays her wisdom in the way she tells the story."
--ROMANTIC TIMES, 4½ Stars, Top Pick

"Eide writes great dialogue that nicely paces the narrative ... bears watching as a storyteller."
--PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

"In her sophomore novel, Camille Eide has penned a beautiful tale with just the right chords of humor and tenderness. The prose of Like a Love Song is lovely, and the myriad twists and turns tugged at my heart as I was rooting for this cast of endearing characters. The splendor and raw beauty of Oregon's high desert is the perfect backdrop for this gripping love story. It's one you don't want to miss."
--CARLA STEWART,
Award-Winning Author of Stardust and The Hatmaker's Heart

"When Sue, a distrustful group home director, meets Joe, a big-hearted oil rig worker, fireworks fly--but not in a good way! Mix in a handful of ragtag foster kids and nothing is certain. Author Camille Eide skillfully draws us through a story of brokenness and hurt to a place of hope--ever pointing to the true source of healing. And love. Five stars! Highly Recommended."
--APRIL McGOWAN,
Healing Fiction Author of Jasmine and Macy

"Like a Love Song is a delightful romance and oh so much more. It's one of those books you never want to have end. I didn't know what was coming next, but I knew it was going to be good. Like a roller coaster ride, the story towed me up steep hills, then plunged me downward into deep valleys and carried me through the heartaches, adventures, and the joys of the residents of Juniper Ranch. Truly fine work by Camille Eide. I'm ready for her next book."

Author of The Journey of Eleven Moons and To Dance With Dolphins

"Like a Love Song gripped my heart just pages into the story and didn't let go until the very last word. Joe, Sue, and their entourage of castaways are a group of characters you'll never forget. Each twist of the plot will keep you guessing--and hoping! Bravo, Camille!"

"Camille Eide does it again. Her ripped-from-the-headlines reality takes the reader into the desperation felt by two lonely people, both doing their best to make the lives entrusted to them better."

"Like a Love Song is author Camille Eide's captivating ode to second chances, love, faith, and forgiveness. From the witty, often heart-wrenching dialogue, to the prose that conjures up the scent of pine and warmth of the sun, this author knows how to keep a reader turning page after page--anxious to see how the story plays out, but sad to reach the end of a wonderful literary journey."

About the Author

Camille Eide is an award-winning author of faith-inspiring love stories and relational dramas for women who might like to read Karen Kingsbury, Deborah Raney, Susan Meissner, Rachel Hauck, Susan May Warren, or Robin Jones Gunn, just to name a few.

She lives near Portland, Oregon, with her handsome hero of more than 30 years. Camille is mom to three charming adults and is a proud Grammy. By day, she’s a church office manager. When she’s not pounding the keyboard, they let her play bass guitar and sing in the worship band. She is a fan of Harleys, Oldies Rock, Jane Austen, muscle cars, and Peanut M&Ms. She has random skills that include whipping up a pile of cinnamon rolls for a crowd of drooling young adults.

Camille blogs about God’s amazing grace at Along the Banks, (camilleeide.wordpress.com) reviews books and inspirational TV/Film at Extreme Keyboarding, (camilleeide.blogspot.com) and writes heart-tugging tales of love, faith, and family, sprinkled with bits of wisdom and wit.
