Carolyn Brown never fails to craft a story that pulls the reader in from page 1 to the very end. This book is no exception, and it makes for a wonderful Christmas season read. I was especially taken by how a former Army captain and a war widow deal with their own feelings and help each other because my best friend's daughter is a war widow with a son, and I have watched her deal with her loss the past 4 years after her Marine husband was killed while protecting one of his team while disarming a "dirty bomb" in Afghanistan. Very touching story, and it hit me close to my heart. Kaycey, the main female character in this book is a strong woman who has been struggling to start over after she is widowed and left with 3 children to raise with help from her family. She, however, feels like she is just the granddaughter, daughter and sister living with her brothers at her grandmother's ranch house. Nash moves into the ranch next door, and their chance meeting throws them together after he falls off an old ladder trying to rescue a kitten and sustans a concussion. Romance, gossiping nosy townspeople, PTSD episodes from Nash, and fun with the 3 children and various animals on both ranches make this story a joy to read despite the underlying sadness of a widow and a former soldier trying to deal with his guilt of still being alive when his team mates are not, especially Adam, Kaycey's dead husband. I am looking forward to more stories from Happy, Texas with more of the family on Hope Springs Ranch including the grandmother of Kaycey, Hope, and Nash's reclusive uncle, Uncle Henry. 5 stars and 3 cheers for Carolyn Brown and her wonderful stories and characters you fall in love with.
