I got this book for free and it even came with fifteen chapters of Jane Austen Girl. This author was new to me, so when I saw that it was free, I gave it a shot. I'm so glad that I did! I was so emotionally invovled in the book from the very beginning! My heart was in my throat several times and I could feel the emotions the main characters were going through.So what's it about? It's a story about Ian, a 39 year-old New York City stockbroker who moves into the small town of Keeling Creek, Virginia so he could re-connect with his troubled teenage son. Soon he meets Colby, the first female veterinarian in the town, who is also a single parent of a teenager. Since he is the first good looking bachelor that has come into the town in a long time, the locals try to play matchmaker between the two main characters. Things should be simple, except for one problem: Ian is engaged to someone else who lives in New York City.Ian and Colby become friends and spend some time together, but soon the attraction between them is hard to overcome. I could feel every angsty moment when the characters would look across the room at each other. And the disappointment Colby felt when she thought she finally found someone she could love only to realize that  he was already taken.Read this book! You won't regret it! There's no infidelity, no alpha-male a**holes and the intimate scenes are not graphic, but sweet. The author lets the reader imagine what happens. The situations and dialogue seem realistic. This was a refreshing change from other romances I've read.
