Always Faithful Books in Order

The Always Faithful books are contemporary, faith-centered romances about people carrying old hurts into the present. The series opens with That Was Then, when Meg Bailey calls the person she once trusted most after her mother's death: Wyatt Deluca, her former husband and first love.

Wyatt is a Marine with scars of his own, and returning to their Pennsylvania hometown means facing much more than a promise. Meg and Wyatt's reunion sets the tone for the series. These are stories about grief, healing, and the hard work of deciding whether a relationship can be rebuilt.

The past is never quite finished.

Across This Is Now and When It's Forever, Atwood keeps the focus on romantic second chances and the people around them. The small-town setting gives the books a close-knit feel, where family, friendship, church life, and shared history can all complicate a couple's choices.

Expect emotional conversations rather than high-action suspense. The tension comes from wounds that have not healed, faith that has been tested, and the risk of letting another person back in. The romances are clean and hopeful, but the characters do not get an easy path.

Start with That Was Then. It introduces the series' emotional world and its emphasis on love that survives difficult seasons.
