Tyler Rivers is a music star who has moved back to his rural hometown with his young son, for a simpler life. Shannon Keystone has returned to the same hometown, following the death of her husband, with her daughter. Shannon and Tyler had been best friends, and are drawn together when they meet again in their hometown.I liked the idea for this story and felt that Shannon and Tyler and their children were well-drawn and likeable. I believed in their relationship and their compatibility.For me, the story itself seemed a bit jumpy. There were great moments between the characters and the games Tyler and Shannon played with one another, but there were also slow moments with extended descriptions that didn't seem necessary and slowed the story down. So, at times, I found my interest waning. I did like the characters enough to want to finish the book and find out how they ended up.The prologue sets a wonderful scene between Tyler and Shannon when they were kids and I wished for more of those sorts of scenes in the book, where I felt close to the characters and their situation.
