From the back...In the beginning, Cynthia McKinney was attracted to J.T. because he'd loved his first wife so deeply. The man obviously took love and marriage seriously. Now, with a new baby to care for and the responsibilities of running J.T.'s household, Cynthia's feeling overwhelmed. She's in no mood for comparisons with the Perfect Pauline. But then, Cynthia learns a thing or two about her uncompromising husband and his fairy-tale first love. The truth is startling, but liberating. For starters, J.T.'s second marriage was no shotgun affair...My Opinion...I was surprised at the turn this story took. It ended up being a story based on the love and marriage between J.T. and his first wife Pauline. Cynthia is distraught over all the comparisons that others seem to make between her and Pauline. Carolyn, who is Pauline's sister sits with Cynthia and tells her the story of J.T. and Pauline. The story gives much insight to the man that J.T. has become. I still think that, as usual, Cynthia blew things way out of proportion at the beginning of the story. I enjoyed reading about Pauline-the woman we have heard so much about. At first I did not think that I was going to like her, but soon her determination and spirit made me see what a wonderful woman she grew to be.
