I love this book and would recommend it to all Melody fans and anyone that love a good Hallmark movie. This book will keep you interested from page one until the end. I really didn't want to see it end. Loved the storyline, the characters and the town setting. But then again, I love this author, when you read Melody Carlson books you are never disappointed. Great light romance read!!!
