Chantel is part of the Panetta family. When her sister tells her that she's fallen in love with a Calarco, we have a Romeo and Juliet situation. The two families have been enemies for years and there seems to be no way this situation can have a happy ending. When Chantel is recruited to run interference between the couple and Calarco's brother, Chantel begins to have feelings for Dante Calarco.
Dante wants to respect his father's wishes and obey him, but as time passes, he sees that his brother really cares about this woman and is devoted to her. As he gets to know the Panetta family better, he starts to think that maybe it is time for the two families to set aside their differences and move on, but nothing seems to get through to his father. It seems like Dante is going to have to choose between what he believes to be right and obeying his father.
I really liked the characters in this one. I didn't start out liking Dante much, but as he grew and his opinions changed, I found him to be one of my favorite characters. Chantel was the troublemaker and peacekeeper at the same time, which made her a fun character. There was some sadness in this one, but it didn't ruin the book for me.
This was a really well written story with deep characters and a flowing story line. This book isn't related to the other books in the series, so it's safe to read them out of order. They're all set in Minnesota, but that's where the connections end. It's a good series and I recommend it. Good Book!
