Letters from David by Eve Paludan

A Midwestern woman faces devastating changes in midlife, loses her home and the steadfast love of her life, misses her adult children, moves cross country to a place she loves, the ocean, finds an exciting lover, regains a relationship with her adult daughter and discovers the truths of life and love within the pages of letters written by her dead husband and her beloved soldier son, both of them named David.

"Claire Mead didn’t have her husband anymore, her children lived abroad, her income was shrinking and she hadn’t shaved her legs all winter. She hadn’t had recreational sex with herself, or laughed, truly laughed, for months. She was going broke and still cried much too easily since David, a.k.a. “The Saint,” had died, but suddenly, she realized she had something she had never once had before in her life -- her freedom."
