Two years ago, Ellie Grant would have fallen apart at any reminder of her ex-husband, Tucker. But now she doesn't bat an eye when "their song" comes on the radio. She's unfazed by the thought of Tucker's perky new girlfriend. Ellie Grant is over him. And things are better for Tucker as well. The single life agrees with him. And certainly they've both done a good job of being civil to each other, for their sons' sake. But the kids aren't buying it. Zach and Kody are convinced that, deep down, their parents are still meant to be together. Up to their elbows in scheming and dreaming, the brothers hatch a plan: They'll run away from home into the Oregon wilderness and stay there until their parents agree to get back together. Surely Ellie and Tucker will come to the rescue--and to their senses. Let the games begin and the sparks fly...

4.0 out of 5 starsNot my favorite of Anderson's...bit still a good read.6 Aug 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I absolutely love Catherine Anderson and although this will not be among my favorites of hers, it was still a good read, with strong characters. Tucker and Ellie Grant divorced after the death of their oldest son, whom each felt guilt and blame over the tragic accident that killed him. 3 years later, the two remaining sons, run away into the mountains refusing to come back until their parents get back together, forcing Tucker and Ellie to spend time together tracking the boys to the place where they used to camp as a family. All along the way, they fight their old feelings, and discover some unknown truths about each other and thier family.....This story has some highly emotional moments which is the strength of the book. Usually, I re-read all of Anderson's books at least once, but for some reason, this one didn't pack the punch for me that her other stories have in the past. Still a good read, and one that I would recommend.

5.0 out of 5 starsExcellent Book19 Aug 2002
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I rarely review books, but could not let the opportunity pass to comment on "Always in My Heart". I read this book prior to reading any other reviews, and was surprised by the critical editorial review listed above.
This is an excellent book with very well developed characters. Yes, a lot of the book is discussing the emotions of the main charachters, but that is what sets this book apart from many others.
If you enjoy a book with more depth than "fluff", this is an excellent book to read. This was my first Catherine Anderson novel and since I have purchased several of her previous books.
Enjoy!

4.0 out of 5 starsGood book but very sad1 Sep 2012
By Claire - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
I recommend this book but there are a few things the reader should know going in: it is very sad and though it is classified as a romance it is more about how a couple and a family goes on together after the death of a child. The way Tucker and Ellie find each other again and finally have conversations they should have had years earlier is pretty gripping and the reader's emotions are caught very early on in the book. It is well written and well paced. But don't expect a light romance, and have tissues handy, as it's a real tear-jerker. There are things which get resolved a little too easily but hey, it's fiction! In all, this story holds together very very well and is worth the time, but do not expect to feel light-hearted when you've turned the last page. There is a HEA but it is still bittersweet at best.
