Date Published: February 4, 2015
Gwen Forrester, Ph.D., 32, gifted psychotherapist and beautiful widow, is stuck in a rut, dating hotties on the fast track. What she really wants is a life partner who’ll help her raise a family and make a difference in her home town, Tompkins Falls. New in town, Officer Peter Shaughnessy, 30, has recovered from the gunshot wound he suffered in a drug bust in the city of Syracuse, but he’s still smarting from his ex-wife’s betrayal and, before that, the years of abuse from his alcoholic father. It feels like fate to Gwen when her very-pregnant niece Haley trips the security system at Gwen’s lakeside home and Officer Shaughnessy takes the call. By joining forces to help Haley, Peter and Gwen discover they’re a good team. Long, exhilarating canoe trips convince them they’re on the same page with their life goals. Then a destructive squall lands them on the rocks, and a night of stormy passion reveals painful truths that drive them apart. Are they willing to go to any length to find their way back to love?
Review
I loved the fact that a woman who had been through so much found such a protective and wonderful man in this novel. Yes there were ups and downs just like with any relationship, but I think that this is one of those novels where Gwen really found a perfect match for her.
Gwen as a character is so easy to love. She has her issues and has dealt with quite a bit, but she has overcome and is strong despite that.
Peter is a wonderful lead as well. He will have you swooning before it is all said and done due to his complete sweetness.
