Produktbeschreibung

Two turn-of-the-century baseball players vie for the love of one woman in this "affecting" historical saga that "glows with warmth and sincerity" ( Publishers Weekly ).

When Foster Lanier and Ben Phelps are released from a professional baseball team in 1904, it is the only experience they have in common, until they meet a runaway - a girl-woman named Lottie Parker - on the train that takes them from Augusta, Georgia, and away from their dreams of greatness.

Foster will marry her and father her son.

Ben will escort her home.

And Lottie will change the lives of everyone she meets, from the day she runs away until she finally finds the place where she belongs.

"Elegaic . . . [Kay] evokes these unsung lives with remarkable tenderness." - Kirkus Reviews

"Kay's prose has an almost dreamlike accessibility, flowing as smoothly as a river without curves." - The Orlando Sentinel

"Captivating . . . timeless. . . . Taking Lottie Home offers the whole literary package-imagery and metaphor, characters wound together in an ennobling story." - The Fort Worth Star-Telegram
