Yesterday Once More by Debbie Macomber
Julie was being controlled by his mother. Everything from telling her what to wear before work and how to furnish her apartment.
Daniel is a spoiled guy who lives by what his mother says.
Just days before the wedding she has had enough and leaves it all behind to go live with an aunt on the west coast. Her career continues til she's learned she really does love him and goes back to town.
She confronts him but he wants nothing to do with her. She then goes to his mother and tells her she still loves him. She is the one to call 911 as they rush the mother, Clara to the hospital.
They are so hopeful with Clara's recovery that they agree to her proposal, get married and give her grandchildren.
They do get married, live together and strain through everyday life with one another.
Clara gets stronger and can now go through with heart surgery.
Julie meets his other girlfriends and he reminds her she's the one that left 3 years ago. ( )
