I'm not really sure what to think of this one. I enjoyed the plot and characters a lot, but I found myself having to push myself to finish it because I was just so bored by it. I can't put my finger on why.
I really liked the main character, Julia. She is running from her past when her car breaks down in small town Colorado. I always enjoy stories of people on the run from their past, and I also love stories where city people find themselves falling in love with the country.
The author really had a way of describing Colorado. I came away from the book a little bit in love with the mountains and ranch life.
Elena is everything I want in someone, so I definitely loved her a lot. Older, more serious, but with a soft side?? Hell yes. I also really adored her son, Cole, though it's mentioned that he's 16 and everyone seems to treat him way younger. Even going as far as still calling him 'little man'. I have no idea if that's normal in small town Colorado, but I can tell you that no 16 year old boy here would tolerate that.
It was not a bad book at all and I did enjoy it, but something is holding me back from rating it higher. I just wish I knew what.
