A Little Bit Of Deja Vu Book One Of The (2000) - Plot & Excerpts
A Little Bit of Déjà vu is book 1 in the Redemption series by Laurie Kellogg. Margie Bradford, a widow and single mother, learns Jake Manion is living in the same town and teaching at the high school. She and Jake have a history. She got pregnant with his baby when she was just eighteen. She had a miscarriage but through the machinations of her mother and his father, he thought she aborted the baby because she didn’t love him. His quick marriage to Roxanne convinced Margie that he just used her and didn’t love her. She went on with her life and married, had a daughter, and became a widow. She now teaches reading at the middle school. Jake Manion, known as Rocket Manion from his NFL days, is teaching and coaching in Redemption. His is divorced and is raising his son Alex. He is a popular teacher. He is working on his dissertation for his PHD. His son Alex seems to be following in his father’s footsteps. He is an excellent student and has a full ride scholarship to Penn State after he graduates. His father asked him to take a new student to lunch and thus he meets Emma, Margie’s daughter. They begin going together and seem to be following their parents’ footsteps as Emma becomes pregnant. Instead of denying he is the father, Alex stands up and faces it. He and Emma are determined to get married and have this baby. Is history really repeating itself? I liked this book and really enjoyed all the twists and turns of the story. I'm definitely planning to read more by this author.I have to say though, I'm hoping I don't read about many more grown women who are still calling their mother "Mommy" all the time. I have two daughters, 9 and 3, and neither of them call me "Mommy" very often. So that was distracting for me because I found it unrealistic.Other than that, though, I really did love the story!
