For journalist Astrid Jones, Magnolia Valley, Montana was where she was happiest. When she gets divorced and then unceremoniously fired in less than six months, she hopes her hometown will work its magic and help her get her life back on track.
All she has to do is avoid her ex-boyfriend, Ethan, and focus on writing a story that will restart her career. Leaving Ethan broke her heart, but she knows she can never be the woman he deserves.
Astrid is headstrong, gorgeous, and always fighting for the underdog—and even at eighteen Ethan knew he’d found the one. But when he proposed to her the night before they went to different colleges, she said no and left without a backward glance.
Since then, Ethan has kept everyone at a distance. But after years of work becoming a veterinarian and joining a practice, Ethan’s goal to open an animal sanctuary and make amends for a tragedy in his past is within reach. He knows he should stay focused and keep his distance from Astrid.
But Ethan has never been very good at staying away from Astrid. And when the story Astrid uncovers puts her in danger—Ethan has to stay close and protect her. Soon, their rekindled passion is heating up the cold winter nights. As Ethan discovers more of Astrid’s guarded heart, he realizes he can’t let her go without a fight this time.
Yet as their love grows, outside forces threaten to destroy everything they are trying to build. Will they find the courage to fight for a second chance at love?
My Review 5 STARS
**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**
This is the second book in the series and can be read as a stand alone as the novel very much only focuses on Ethan and Astrid and is read from Astrid Point of view.
The characters are relatable and also have their problems and insecurities, but manage to overcome them and be there for each other when it matters most. Especially as Astrid reporters nose lands he in a spot of trouble.
Astrid also proves she is there for Ethan in helping him organise a fundraiser for an animal sanctuary in memory of his friend and when there needs to be a venue change, Astrid really rally's round to make it happen.
I really like these characters and we were also introduced to a few more characters along with a tie-bit on who will next get their story, Nora and Alek.
I really recommend this book.
