Overview

An unlikely friendship. An unforgettable love story. When workaholic physician Ansley Stone writes a letter to the estranged son of a patient asking him to send the family's heirloom date night jar, she only intended to bring a little happiness to a lonely old man during his final days. But before long, she finds herself increasingly drawn to Cleve Fields' bedside, eager to hear the stories of his courtship with his beloved late wife, Violet, that were inspired by the yellowed slivers of paper in the old jar. When Cleve asks her to return the jar to his son, Ansley spontaneously decides to deliver it in person, if only to find out why no one, including his own son, visits the patient she's grown inexplicably fond of. Mason Fields is happily single, content to spend his days running the family strawberry farm and his evenings in the company of his best friend, a seventeen-year-old collie named Callie. Then Ansley shows up at his door with the date night jar and nowhere to stay. Suddenly, she's turning his carefully ordered world upside down, upsetting his routine and forcing him to remember things best left in the past. When she suggests they pull a slip of paper from the jar, their own love story begins to develop. Before long, their newfound love will be tested in ways they never imagined, as the startling truth about Mason's past is revealed . . . and Ansley's future is threatened.

In THE DATE NIGHT JAR, Joey Jones delivers a beautiful love story, capturing the poignancy of both new affection and the power of deep, lasting devotion. He expertly weaves between present and past, creating moments that are in turn sweet and heartrending. Jones delivers strong characters who feel real on the page and who create an emotional resonance as they move through their journey. Comparisons to Nicholas Sparks are inevitable, both in the emotional depth of the novel and the rural North Carolina geography both use. Readers of Sparks, Debbie Macomber, and Nicholas Evans looking for a well-crafted and satisfying read should add THE DATE NIGHT JAR to their summer reading list. Jeff Gunhus (USA TODAY bestselling author)

Author Information

The writing style of Joey Jones has been described as a mixture of Nicholas Sparks, Richard Paul Evans, and James Patterson. USA Today Bestselling Author Jeff Gunhus compared Jones' work to Debbie Macomber, Nicholas Evans, and Sparks. National Bestselling Author Kristy Woodson Harvey described Joey Jones' writing as lyrical and proclaims he effortlessly pulls readers into the souls of his characters. The ratings and reviews of Jones' novels A BRIDGE APART (2015), LOSING LONDON (2016), and A FIELD OF FIREFLIES (2018) reflect the comparison to the aforementioned New York Times bestselling authors. Readers can expect the same from THE DATE NIGHT JAR. Joey Jones fell in love with creative writing at a young age and decided in his early twenties that he wanted to write a book. His debut novel A BRIDGE APART is a suspenseful love story that was years in the making as he tinkered with the story off and on while working full-time in the marketing field. In February 2016, Jones became a full-time novelist and published his second novel LOSING LONDON later that year. All of Jones' novels have earned 4.6 out of 5.0 Amazon stars or better. In his spare time, Joey enjoys spending time with his family, playing sports, working out, reading, and writing inspirational quotes. His favorite meal is a New York Style Pizza with a sweet tea. He won the 8th-grade spelling bee at his school, but if you ask him how many students participated, he might say, Such minor details are not important! He currently lives in North Carolina with his family. Joey Jones earned a B.A. in Business Administration from the University of Maryland University College where he graduated with honors (2006). He was the owner of a full-service advertising agency and taught business and marketing courses as an adjunct college instructor.
