Loved this story of high school friends (who wanted more) meeting again.  Plus our hero, Logan, has lots of brothers ... I foresee many more books in the future!  The setting is Rudolph, South Dakota - in a small town where everyone knows your name.  The way the story is told, you feel as though you are there and it is happening to you - I think I felt the mud fly up and hit me when Poppy was racing across the pasture on Logan's ATV.  And now a bit about the story...Poppy has been struggling over a year to fulfill her best friends dying wish.  A horrendous storm and flood wiping out part of her hometown gave her a purpose to return.  And the courage to face Logan.  Both the physical changes to her hometown and the emotional changes to Logan are drastic.  He used to live life to the fullest, now he can't even take a break to play pirate with Keith, his 4 year old son.  Poppy is a force to be reckoned with though, she may not be as tough as mother nature, but she is close.  Watch her try her best to find the teenage Logan she left behind - the loving, fun, happy Logan she has been in  love with her whole life.Favorite passages:- Hearing Poppy's musical laugh as she drove through the fields, spitting up mud all around them, it was hard to feel anything but happiness.- With each step she took upstairs, her feet dragging behind letting the happiness she's felt all day slip away.  And her world had shattered all over again.- She turned and walked out of the barn.  Rounding the corner, she placed a hand on the barn door and listened, waiting.  She drew in a slow breath of cold March air.  Nothing.  Logan hadn't said another word.  And he didn't come after her.  Again.- "I want to live every day as if it was the last day, ... you never know when that last day will come."
