Slightly spoilery --- I've loved Shiloh's work for a while, anyway, and of course she didn't disappoint. Chase ran away from his feelings for Zoe years ago, and when he came back to find that she was married to his best friend, it was... well, a shock (to say the least). I loved the way he handled it though. And when Zoe's husband was diagnosed with his tumor, Chase didn't act like a big jerk and think "YAY! Now's my chance!" He acted like the man she fell in love with all those years ago and the best friend he really was and stood by their side. He was the hero the book called for, and not the slimy jerk I sort of expected (no offense, Shiloh - it's where I expect any man to go). That's what made me love him. The fact that he was a stand up guy when he needed to be. And when it came down to it, I loved the fact that Zoe a) truly loved her husband b) stood by her husband until the very end and c) didn't run to Chase the second her husband died. She gave herself the time she needed to grieve. Ultimately, I really enjoyed this book as I did all other Shiloh Walker books. She's an amazing author & manages to capture my heart with every character she writes.
