Erin Nicholas tells a story that keeps you interesting from start to finish. There is a wonderful chemistry between the hero and heroine that I just want to keep reading and wishing it didn't come to an end because I could not get enough. I laughed, I cried, and sometimes I was doing both at the same time as the main characters try to put the past behind them and not worry about what other people think.Brooke Donovan has tried so hard to live a quiet life. Her late husband had made a financial agreement with their hometown, and now, she has to go back to that small town in Texas to repay them. She hated living there because everyone compared her to her mother, so she has no plans of staying any longer than the amount of time that is necessary. She will work as a physician's assistant at the clinic, which will pay off her debt and then she is gone for good. When unexpected news causes her to realize that she may not be able to fulfill her agreement she's not sure what she will do, but she is determined that she will find a way to prove to the people of the town that she is dependable and keeps her promises.Dr. Jack Silver has felt responsible for the death of Brooke's husband since he found out that his uncle was the one that caused his death.
