The story had a lot of twists and turns that was still romantic. It always amazes me how stories evolve because communication is so difficult. I had a tough time putting this book down until I was done.
Good start to a new series by Ms. Lyons. This has everything you’d expect a small-town romance to have. There’s the hometown hero and an all-around good guy who is loved by everyone. There’s the overbearing, pompous jerk who the majority of the town is afraid of. There’s the best friend of said hometown hero who is really a good guy but from the wrong side of the tracks. Oh, and who is also a target of the pompous jerk’s disdain. Then there’s the cheerleader, homecoming queen who everyone knows is perfect for the hometown hero, they’ve been dating for three years and everyone is waiting for him to put a ring on it. He’s tried, he really has. He just can’t seem to find the right moment. Then suddenly a down on her luck, very pregnant woman becomes stranded in a snowstorm who is rescued by the hometown hero. I’m sure you’re sensing the plot by now. This is a clean, sweet, smooth-flowing story about how it all goes down and is resolved. It’s not all sunshine and roses. How could it be with that plot? But there isn’t high drama. There are plenty of melt your heart moments and a few laughs along the way. All in all, this is a very enjoyable long afternoon read.
A wonderful story! A quick relaxing afternoon read with well developed characters and storyline.I will read more from this series.
She’s pregnant and loses control of her car on her way to her mothers as the baby daddy want no part of it. He happens along in the snowstorm and not only rescues her but brings her home as there are no motel rooms due to the storm.
Cute but give me angst.
A book that was okay said something that stuck with me. “My life started without me seven years ago and I’m not letting it ever get away again.” Garrett should have said something similar. He should have been the one to lay it all on the line and beg her to not take his life away. He coasted through life and his relationships because he didn’t want to upset anyone. He needed to be the one that said my life is on the other side of that door and because I didn’t have enough guts I might miss all of it. Everyone lacked guts and nobody got called on it.
Excellent story. Well written!

Garret and Darcie
Darcie and Garret get their happily ever after. Some great characters with some folks that were miserable to be around. All turned out as it should have.
Good read..
Nice romance. A couple meets under extra-ordinary circumstances. Other love interests are in the mix. Generational and family angle. A very enjoyable read.
Well written story and great characters make this a great book.
It was fun to see how “what is supposed to be” get turned around
great read
Small town life at its best!
I didn’t finish this book. I like to read about people with more of a moral compass than the characters in this book had. The writing itself was good.
Thought the book was good. Sweet romance.
Predictable but characters seemed very real and believable.
