This is a cute romance.  Spending one summer together hiking, camping, etc. Samantha and Dean fall for each other.  however they both have ambitions that take them in opposite directions.  Each leaves with a broken heart but not really seeing the other person's side of things.  Then 5 years later they meet again.  They are both working in the same field and are competing for the same contract for their company.They reconnect in every way except that they don't really trust each other.  The whole story takes place over the week-end as they get to know each other again and discover their feelings.  Then on Monday morning they show up to discover which one has won the contract.  I thought it was a cute story and I enjoyed it and recommend it.  It was an enjoyable read.SPOILER...why is it that it is always the fault of the male for everything?  They both left things 5 years previous on bad terms.  Then she has thoughts of him using her over the week-end to gain a step up on the contract--which what they did over the week-end had nothing to do with the decision. She won't tell him how she really feels.  He doesn't tell her how he feels.  She did lie about a telephone call when there was no reason to lie and then when caught says it was just a silly lie over a phone call.  Isn't a lie a lie?  So she is ahead by one point.Then she lets him know that this contract is the most important thing to her.  But she resents the fact that he puts his work first.  So they part on bad terms and she is waiting for him to come crawling.  And he does.  But why didn't she own up to her part in all of it and meet him half way?  I would have much better feelings about her if she had owned up to her responsibilities in all of it rather than letting him do all of the ..."it's all my fault" sort of thing.  Just thoughts.  Has nothing to do with the story or rather it is good or not.  I did enjoy the story.
