Abigail's life in a romance town is hard. Being single and the descendant of the ultimate love story is something she wishes she could separate herself from. Since her failed romance, she's found her identity in her book store. When the building gets sold from under her, she sees her dreams coming to an end, but she doesn't want to see it go.
Jacob is in Loves Park to start over. The death of his wife turned his life upside down and left him with a heartbroken little girl. As a doctor, he blames himself for failing when it really mattered but has been persuaded to open up a new practice. His business manager was a friend of his late wife's, but as time goes by, he begins to wonder if he's made the wrong choice.
Jacob buys the building where Abigail's shop is, and the war is on. It was very reminiscent of You've Got Mail in that respect, and the bit with the paper hearts only reinforced that. The story is sweet and I liked the way it went. You really need to be in the mood for a straight-up romance when reading this one, it was borderline cheesy a couple times, but I did like it. The characters were well developed, and I liked the author's writing style.
There's another book in the series called Change of Heart. It revolves around a minor character in this book, so it might be okay to read these alone or out of order. I plan on putting Change of Heart on my watch list and hope to get it for one of those times when I just need to read a romance. Good Book!
A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here
A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!
