A society woman leaves her comfortable lifestyle so that she can help her daughter adjust to the arrival of twin sons in a small town where the courageous doctor teaches her about taking risks.
Wealthy and sociable Margaret Millerson has always thought of her brother’s Chicago mansion as her home. But when she receives the telephone call that her daughter has given birth to twins three weeks ahead of the expected due date, Margaret must leave her comfortable home, her family, and her friends to travel out of state. While she is helping her daughter care for the infants, Margaret becomes reacquainted with the town’s doctor, Matthew Kaldenberg.
Dr Matthew Kaldenberg stays busy caring for the health of the citizens of his small town. His profession offers him daily practice in defeating death, his greatest enemy. During the twenty years since losing his own wife and baby in childbirth, Matthew has saved his money for the purchase of a flying machine. But when Matthew takes Margaret for flights on his biplane, he learns that his dreams of rising above the griefs and losses of his past come with a cost. He doesn’t want to lose the trust of the people he cares about most, or the chance at a relationship with Margaret.
Both Matthew and Margaret must make difficult decisions to hold on to the love they have discovered. Will Matthew’s heart recover from sorrow? Will Margaret find her true home?

My Thoughts on Coming Home to Mercy
Coming Home to Mercy is a wonderful historical romance novel that you’re going to enjoy reading as much as I did. I have to say that I love books that have twins in them. They seem to draw me. Maybe because I have older twin brothers. Or maybe because I’ve always wanted to have twins of my own. Either way, this book drew me with the twins and the historical aspect of it.
I love the characters. They’re really well developed and kept my attention throughout the book. The doctor is a favorite. Who knew a doctor would love a flying machine?! I thought they’d be more leery of them due to the injuries they could cause. But not this doctor! He has his own. What a sad past too, knowing that his wife and child died in childbirth.
Watch Dr and Margaret get to know each other and see the town grow and bloom more. Do know that this is the first book in a new series but there is a series that it does follow. The Tomorrow series comes before this book. This book does continue the story you would have read about in them!
I have voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from Celebrate Lit. All views expressed are only my honest opinion. I was not required to write a positive review nor was I compensated in any other way. All opinions expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the FTC regulations.

More from Michelle
Coming Home to Mercy is the first in a trilogy of books set in a small Iowa town during the years 1913 through 1918. This is the second series of books I have written. The Tomorrow series is the first set, and if you’ve already read it, you will recognize characters that appeared in Hope for Tomorrow, Promise for Tomorrow, and Dreaming of Tomorrow.
This book is a graceful story of two people who thought faithful, committed love could only come into their lives once. But they both discover that they get another chance to experience it again.
I wrote Coming Home to Mercy to show what healthy marriages and healthy families are like.
I trust this story gives us a glimpse of how true love works, what faithfulness means, and what compassion can do; not only in one person’s life but in the daily workings of an entire community.
The hero in this story has a sad, broken heart at the beginning. As the story unfolds, he heals and gains a deeper understanding of God’s work in his life. Dr Matthew Kaldenberg finds love and peace as his belief grows that God truly does work all things together for good.
