Karen Erickson has given us a lovely second addition to the Lone Pine Lake series with wonderful characters and a lovely capturing storyline. We met Cameron and Chloe briefly inJane's Gift (Lone Pine Lake)and whilst I liked them both, once you get to know them in depth they are both so easy to love.Cameron is the McKenzie that got away. Escaping Lone Pines, he is a successful photographer who seldom returns home and of all the siblings, he seems the most distant. He's a stubborn, insecure man of few words who doesn't do relationships and thrives on adventure. Chloe is the epitome of sweet; the town princess and teacher, she is kind, caring and a good listener. To Cam she was always his sister Jane's irritating awkward friend. To Chloe he was always the guy she was a little bit in love with. She wants adventure and romance and astounded at how she has blossomed he can't deny her. She promises him no strings attached...but also declares no horizontal activities!Their journey was one of self-discovery and acceptance. Cameron surprised me. He comes across as a giant heartless idiot, but scratch the surface and there is much more to him. I loved him. Chloe complimented him perfectly and blossoms as the book progresses into a strong supportive woman. The lives of the McKenzie siblings all continue to evolve and they bring wit, argumentativeness and unconditional love to the story. All in all a fabulous book; I loved the surprise at the end, it was a little treat that brought a smile to my face and I look forward to more visits to Lone Pine Lake in the future. Poor Mindy deserves some happiness and Mac needs a woman to sort him out!
