There was not much of a synopsis offer for this book as you can see, so I knew that I was going into this story a little blind. I also have not read the other books of the Friessen Legacy, but I was happy to find that this did not effect the plot line for this particular story. There are moments that I noticed the characters are easily assumed to be in earlier novels, but it was more imperative that I read them to enjoy this books journey.Andy and Laura are a lot more alike than how it appears. Laura a single mother at twenty is working in the home of the Friessen's. As a maid she is nothing more than a warm body cleaning their rooms and doing chores, but every so often she seem to catch the eye of Andy Friessen. Determined to be nothing like his father he in turn avoids her like the plague, but life through a twist that lands them together. Andy's character is very frosty and difficult to figure out. I was uncertain if his actions were out of a conscious obligation or something deeper, but as the story turns it becomes evident that he has far more interest then settling a disturbed conscious. Laura is a strong and independent character, but this heart wrenching story portrays her at her lowest. After losing a job, her home, and finally her child it is easy to see the dark sinister emotions that take over her character. Refreshingly, it is Andy that become her strong hold. Readers will cheer for this couple when they can finally form a plan to undo everything vicious attempt that Andy's family can concoct. This was a tragic story that as is finally winds down to conclude will uplift your spirits, and leave you warm and fuzzy. With a story so short it is difficult to build the deep and intense emotions I wish that it could have given a little more time to build a powerful bond, but the story lays it out as something growing. This made it easier to handle the suddenness of the relationship and romance. This is easy and uplifting that could be finished in one sitting.~BookWhisperer Reviewer Jo~
