This is a DNF for me.  I was looking for a book that was a bit more fast paced.  I think this was written outside of the US, as several European spellings showed up.  There were instances of obvious misspellings that should have been caught in the editing process.  Also, the dialogue didn't ring true.  "Cuppa" hasn't gone mainstream yet, and I found several American male characters using the word.  Also, this was too sweet for me.  Callie, the heroine, runs her own business, volunteers, and goes to church.  This had a definite Christian slant, while mild, was still annoying since the blurb had nothing about this being in the Christian genre.  Henry, the hero, had potential.  He was a perfect specimen of a man, and I didn't read long enough to find out if he had any rough edges or not.  I suspect not, or they would have shown up by the time I quit reading.  I would not recommend this book.  I got it for free through one of Amazon's promotions over the holiday season.
