Irving, TX (prHWY.com) April 26, 2011 - Award winning author, Kat Martin, has announced the release of her new book, "A song for My Mother. Her latest novel takes readers back to the town of Dreyerville for a story that explores loss, hope and love in all its many aspects.

Marly Hanson fell in love and ran away with her boyfriend in her junior year of high school. The act of defiance drove a wedge between the teen and her mother, Winnie. The rift was so wide between the two that they haven't spoken in the intervening years and Winnie has never met her granddaughter, Marly's daughter Katie.

Marly is returning to Dreyerville at the request of her daughter, who is being treated for cancer. For Marly, the return home is bittersweet, but it forces both Marly and Winnie to revisit the conflict and the many emotions that engenders. Facing the past is crucial if mother and daughter are ever to rebuild the bond they shared before Marly ran away.

The time Marly has in Dreyerville is limited, and matters become more complicated after she meets Katie's neighbor, Sheriff Reed Bennett, a widower with a teen son, Ham. Katie and Ham become fast friends, but their parents' attraction is more than platonic.

As the days pass, they become more deeply involved and Marly is torn between giving her love to the handsome Sheriff and giving up the future she worked so hard to make for her and Katie. Marly must search her soul for answers - can she make a life in Dreyerville where she experienced so much pain in the past? Does her true destiny and happiness lie in coming to terms with her past?
