I am sad that this is the final book in the Granger Series. I have looked forward to each new book since 2009 and I will miss them. Maybe Ms Hart will do a Granger Family Reunion one day.Addy Granger has given up on love after several failed relationships, one of which was in the beginning stages of abusiveness. For the last few years her father and all of her siblings have found their one true love and they are either married or engaged. She believes she has 'love doom' and fears she can never open her heart again after her college boyfriend hurt her so deeply. She thinks she will be content alone, without love, without a husband and her own family.Blake Parnell, the Granger's neighbor, is back home from his stint in the marines. He joined up to get away and travel the world, hoping to get over the woman he has desperately loved since high school, Addy Granger. Unfortunately the first time he sees her all those feeling come flooding back in. He fears history is about to repeat itself and he will live his life in love with a woman who does not return those feelings. As Blake and Addy work together to restore an old sleigh for her dad's wedding, sparks begin to fly.Although this book is good and I definitely recommend it, for me it was a little lacking compared to the other books in the series and there seemed to be a lot of redundancy with Addy and her woes. So much time was spent with her going over and over her determination to avoid love at all cost.
