Who is Logan Thorne? If you have been reading Susan May Warren lately, Logan Thorne has been a mysterious leader of men. I really enjoyed reading The Homecoming of Logan Thorne as it finally gives a history to a very mysterious man. I also really liked Tessa. She is a fantastic young woman, very dedicated to those she loves. Although it is only a novella I was truly satisfied with this story. Warren has again created a believable tale and even better it is set in Minnesota! So grab a warm beverage and settle in for a great backstory.
Although this review says it is for the e-book I purchased my paperback copy form Susan May Warren's author store.

What will it cost him to return home?
When Logan Thorne said goodbye Tessa Plum, the woman he loved three years ago, he didn’t expect it to be forever.
But, as a guy listed as dead and now on the run from the CIA, he can’t exactly show up in his hometown and restart his life.
Unless…unless he disguises himself as Santa, and just…checks in on her. He’ll make sure she’s okay, and then he’ll leave.
Really.
Except that brilliant plan doesn’t go according to plan, and suddenly he’s sneaking around small town Minnesota, helping an unknowing Tessa with a project like a Secret Santa.
Secret HOT Santa, according to Tessa. She doesn’t know where the man has come from, but she’ll take his help to create a magical Christmas for their tornado-ravaged town.
But what happens when she discovers that her impossible Christmas wish has come true? Can she let the man she’s never forgotten leave again? Even if it means saving his life?
Is there a resurrection for Logan Thorne?
Read the long-awaited story of the epic homecoming of Logan Thorne.
For folks who have read the story, here is a picture I took from Minnesota looking across the Rainy River into Canada...

About the author:
Growing up in Minneapolis and attending the U of MN, I learned to love city life, although I'm a woodsy girl at heart. Or maybe I'm an adventurer -- having lived and traveled all over the world, including Siberia Russia as a missionary for eight years. Probably that's why my characters can't sit still, and seem to get into one scrape after another -- they're too much like me! I love God, my family, my country, my church, and feel privileged every day to be able to write stories.
