Synopsis

Despite saving people’s lives every day as a successful trauma surgeon, nothing can mend Dr. Liliana Chase’s heart after the loss of her husband and baby girl.

When her mother convinces her to come back to Clear Springs, Idaho, for the first time in seven years, she intends to make the visit as short as possible. What she didn’t expect was to wreck her car while avoiding a cow with a death wish.

Blake Richardson, a mechanic and single dad, isn’t used to helping fiery physicians, but he can’t leave Lili planted in a potato field and facing off with a cow. He swears he’ll never let another woman into his world after the way his ex-wife left him, but something about Lili keeps him from seeing her as just another big-city doctor.

While Lili is stuck waiting for her car to be repaired in the tiny rural town, she can’t resist the pull Blake has on her. Blake’s fun-loving and genuine personality might be enough to make her believe in love again. But there’s a secret weighing heavily on Blake, and his connection to the death of Lili’s family will force them both to confront their fears of loss and abandonment, or risk being alone forever.

“A deeply satisfying happily-ever-after.”—Melanie Jacobson, USA Todaybestselling author

This was an extremely enjoyable read, although I couldn't connect with the characters. Everyone grieves in their own way, obviously, but I couldn't feel anything coming from Liliana: she was constantly haunted by the death of her husband and daughter, but it seemed like she only talked about it witho......more
