I absolutely loved this story.  He marries his son's widow.  Now it may sound weird or creepy to some but the author did so well with the telling of their story that it is not strange at all.  I was rooting for him the whole time.  A very troubled soul, he has guilt for loving his son's wife.  Bree was pregnant when they married but there are secrets surrounding her marriage to Nick's son.  There are a lot of twists and turns to this story.  Secrets everywhere.Nick has his share of pain and hurt.  his first wife was a real case for the books.  He survives her but she left her mark on him that he has yet to get beyond.  So, lots of secrets there as well.  Then the son.  He had more than his share of pain because of his mother and the things she did.  Lots for him to work through.Nick and Bree finally get together but Bree has a big secret that she is not sharing.  I kept guessing one thing and then another but you just have to read it to see what that secret was.  It almost cost her to lose Nick.  But he finds her and himself.  I loved this story.  I was so rooting for them.  it was a good lesson in communication, trust, faith, etc.  Lots of good lessons along the way.  One thing I picked up was that when someone is trying to tell you something, be quiet and let them talk.  It may not go in the direction you think it was going.  There is a lot of love and passion but the book could easily have been read by any age.  Nick does have some problems with God and he finds his way in that too.  It is not preachy or anything like that, you even like the old priest and you don't have to the Catholic to do so.  Good read.  I really enjoyed it.  I really could not see where the less positive reviews were coming from. After reading them I wondered if we were reading the same book.  I highly recommend it.
