Widower Maggie O'Brien lost the love of her life three years ago. She is now on a journey to find peace and closure. This vibrant and spunky former pastor's wife wants to fulfill the dream she had over forty-two years ago of traveling the world and experiencing new adventures. What she finds in Mason Springs, New Mexico isn't on her bucket list though.
Former judge and fellow widower Carson Jennings didn't expect Maggie either. This adventurer never dreamed he'd be swept off his feet by a woman so different from his late wife. The romance that blossoms between them will be tested in ways neither could have imagined. Will their love for one another be strong enough to weather the storms—or will the love for their children and other circumstances keep them apart? Join Maggie and Carson on their oftentimes hilarious and soul-searching adventure. It's sure to tug at your heartstrings.

Personal note:
Reservations for Two is very special to me, as it was inspired by my former Wednesday Night Bible Study Class. This lovely group of ladies taught me the true meaning of a close walk with God. They accomplished that, not so much in words but in their actions and the way they lived their lives. So I dedicate this book to them and thank them for their inspiration and guidance in my life. They have all been a true blessing to me!

Reviews for Reservations for Two
Judy at That's a Novel Idea gave it 5 hearts! "This was a refreshing and delightful story. A story that shows how two older people who have lost their spouses can find true love again....There was humor, tenderness, joy and sorrow all wrapped up in a lovely story that was a blessing to read." Read the whole here.
Val at You Gotta Read Reviews: Although Maggie and Carson are older, they are in no way slowing down. The relationships that Maggie and Carson develop with each other as well as the people they meet seems to be on a fast track but the deep feelings are believable and made me want to turn the pages just as fast as I could. I found Reservations For Two to be a story that was filled with humorous moments with imperfect characters and because of that, I could relate very well...The one thing I loved about this book, because I rarely see it in others, is the incorporation of Maggie's children and grandchildren. It was so refreshing to watch as the different generations dealt with the same trials and tribulations although in different ways...I highly recommend this book to any lover of the romance genre. Ms. Monroe, I commend you on a well written book with characters that kept me coming back for more. Read the whole review here.
Miss Lynn's Books&More gave it 5 Stars! This was such a soul searching book and Ms. Monroe wrote it with just the right amount of drama, and romance to keep the readers attention.
