This was a great contemporary romance. I loved the strength in Libby's character. After everything she has been through - mother and brother dying, father kicking her out of the house, struggling to care for herself and her daughter Nicole - she still cared about protecting others. The romance between her and Gibson was great. I always like the characters in my book to be realistic, I don't like it when they come off as too perfect. The author nailed it in this book. All of the characters were likable, but yet realistically flawed. Each had their own insecurities and weaknesses that made it feel like I was spying on real-life neighbors rather than just reading about them in the pages of the book.This one pulled at my heart, but it's not an emotional cry fest either.It was a fun read that will give you faith in the strength of families, forgiveness, and of small communities helping each other.
