*** "Leah was already there. She was leaning over the bar, wearing a mini skirt that didn't quite cover her butt and a sport's bra. Her warm honey skin glistened, still wet from swimming. The few patrons inside were all riveted to her. As Stewart's wheels rumbled onto the wooden floor, she turned and fixed him with her well-honed siren smile." ***

Stewart's Story Reviews
-
I haven't read either of the full books, so I'm sure I am missing something, but I was not sure at the "ending" of the story. It seemed so sudden. I was expecting to turn the page and see something more. It was a good story of someone who is living with guilt and trying to get by the best that he can given the circumstances.
I would give it more stars if there were a better resolution to the story. I'm not sure if they got back together or what. What about a job too? He was a student teacher for 1 week? That is not how it normally goes. Substitute? Yes. -
This is the first book I read by Ruth Madison. It is a nice, short story about how a car accident changed the lives of Stewart, his family & friends. I liked how Stewart didn't let his wheelchair stop him from living his life. I think it could have been a really good book if it had more information about the secondary characters in the story. I would read other books by this author.

Stewart returns home to face his past and make up for his mistakes, but he soon discovers that everyone wants something from him. In particular, he doesn't trust the motives of his ex-girlfriend's flirty attention.

I didn't want to give it fewer stars for being so short, but it was the first time I've turned the page and thought...'that really was the end?' I guess now I'll have to read their Christmas short story!

The story didn't feel complete. I know it is a short story/novella, but even with that in mind it was cramming too much in and yet managed not to wrap up in a satisfying way.
That being said I love how "normal guy" Stewart is. -
I liked this novella but I think I would've liked it more without the scenes with Stewart's father. It seemed like the author just crammed those in there at the last second, in my opinion. But, other than that, a very soid lunchtime book
