Jury of His Peers: A Selection from The Unexpected Husband

Two childhood rivals reconnect during jury duty―and are forced to navigate their complex feelings for one another―in this heartwarming novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author Debbie Macomber. Caroline Lomax is eager to exercise her civic duty and report for jury duty. However, when she sees a familiar face on her first day, she is near certain that she has come face to face with Ted Thomasson, the thorn in her side throughout high school―and the last person she’d want as a fellow juror. Ted still seems to relish in making Caroline squirm, but he shocks Caroline when he declares that he’s always harbored feelings for her. Just as she attempts to make sense of it all, they’re both selected for the same case . . . and as things intensify in and out of the courtroom, it becomes clear that Caroline has an enormous decision to make.
