Welcome home to Mountain Meadow, Virginia—a small town with a big heart, where love is just around the corner…
All Holly Morgan wants is a safe place to have her baby. Nestled deep within the Blue Ridge Mountains, miles away from her abusive ex-fiancé, Spence, Mountain Meadow seems perfect. Holly can manage a few meddling church matrons if it means Spence can’t find her. Harder to handle is Jake Allred. He may be a dark-haired hunk, but he’s also someone Holly can’t trust: a cop.
Since his time in the military, Lieutenant Jake Allred has lived to protect and serve. And if anyone needs protection, it’s Holly. Having been let down by the law before, she’s wary of letting Jake into her life. But when an unexpected snow storm strands them together, their attraction is hot enough to melt the mounting ice. Just when Jake thinks he’s finally warmed Holly’s heart, Spence strikes. Now it’s up to Jake to save Holly’s baby and bring their fledgling family back together.
My Review 3 STARS

This was a lovely read that went slowly at times and then sped up when there was something happening.
Holly moves to Mountain Meadows heavily pregnant with her little brother who she has guardianship over in order to get away from an abusive ex-fiancee. She is very wary of talking to anyone about her past let alone accepting any help from anyone, even though she needs it.
Tyler, her little brother has had to grow up quickly and helps out in ways that are lovely to see, like getting a job when he is only 11 or 12, in order that they can get money or food.
Jake is a police officer and it is after seeing Jake walking home with grocery's that he starts stepping in to help his new neighbours and getting closer to Holly. It is durning a storm that things take a turn and their relationship changes forever.
There are lots of lovely characters in this book and you get an idea of what a small town could be like should you live there, where everyone knows your business, the relationships are nice and we really get two couples coming together in this story as the plot thickens and twists.
I may have to go back at some point and finish this series.
