BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The New York Times bestselling author of Spring Forward returns to Mystic Creek, Oregon, where an estranged pair are given a second chance.
As a camp cook, Vickie Brown loves feeding any size crowd in the great outdoors–with one notable exception. She never would have predicted she’d join the crew led by gruff cowboy Slade Wilder, the man who broke her heart just days before their wedding.
Life has gone on since Vickie left him, but Slade can admit his attraction to the one woman he’s ever loved remains stronger than ever. If he wasn’t in such desperate need of an experienced cook for his paying guests, he would send Vickie packing. He knows better than to seek out the company of the woman who broke off their engagement so many years ago.
Except there’s no escaping each other in the confines of the wilderness area, especially once their anger begins to soften in the shared close quarters. But after Vickie finds the courage to confront Slade, it will take a leap of faith for them to put their past behind him, even if it’s the only way to recapture their once-in-a-lifetime love.
REVIEW:
2.75 Hearts Ok I didn’t find my thrill… If you don’t get that reference you are too young! But the story was ok just not great. And here is why…
I expected one romance and ended up with another. Yes the younger romance was there but there is a “second chance at love” romance happening at the same time and more emphasis was spent on the latter.
Maybe I would have enjoyed it more if it was the story that I was expecting with the second chance being just a background story but I am not sure.
