I highly enjoyed this book. I got this as an arc copy and I wasn't in the mood for a romance book at the time but decided to start the first chapter and well I couldn't put it down. I finished it in one go. I loved the characters so much. Seeing how devoted Cain was to parenting Eric and then Mollie comes in and shakes things up. Seeing Mollie make such a big change in her life for her own happiness. I ate it all up. The characters are lovable and I was so invested in Strawberry Springs. I loved that I couldn't guess what would happen, it truly did keep me entertained and interested, and the towns people were realistic and frustrated me at points but that's how you know it's good when you get frustrated for the characters. Also, you even get some crossover characters at one point in the story. I enjoy those details so much. I can't wait to know what lies in store for Wren and also Jade.
