Got this free on Amazon, as posted in the bargain basement group in Goodreads and I didn't expect to like it but I did.I got the impression this is something different and it drew me in. The characters captured my attention and it's been awhile since I've read a small town-themed story.The author convincingly wrote about grief from losing a loved one and the difficulty in coping. We have Leo who's a single father and he doesn't know a thing about raising his son. He meets Trinity who has her own secret and while the mood or the tone of the story isn't all dreamy and romantic, I liked the time and effort Leo spent trying to win over his son, and Trinity too.In fact, he eased himself into the community where he grew up in and felt at home. There were teary eyed moments for me when it comes to Leo and Max. Leo and Trinity's moments were exciting and it felt like they were kids.While I enjoyed reading about it, I felt that this could have been better cause the author ended on a cliffhanger. This is one of those books that needs a final chapter.
