I more or less enjoyed all entries in these series - I cannot say that they are on the top ten list of my most memorable books, but they were light hearted well written fun.This long novella (Amazon lists words count as 44000) is no exception. You have to endure super fast attraction between our heroes (what's new, right? Most m/m novellas have that :((), but if you can, I think the chance you will like it is high enough.Sam is a guy who wondered whether staying in small city robbed him of some possibilities he (and his sister) may had elsewhere, but really he loves the town and people around him and I think people love him too.Heh, I don't know though whether I could ever live in the small city where everybody everybody knows your business and you being caught on tape with a handsome stranger in the library is something that everybody is aware of pretty much next day.Aaron has some secrets when he comes to Smithfield - but I am telling you for half a story I thought his secret was something totally different than what it turned out to be, so it fooled me for sometime at least. Not bad.I think what I liked the most was that I actually had a  clear mental picture of the characters in my head by the time story ended - too often when I finish even longer story I do not fee like I know even the leads and here I felt like I knew who Sam and Aaron were, and his sister Wynne (who thank goodness was shown as having her own inspirations and ambitions in life, and was not there just to support her brother, even though she was supportive and loving).I liked Claire too - that was another interesting female character, although of course if it was her story she could use a little more fleshing out too.3.5 stars rounded to 4.
