The book was pretty good, although some of the plot elements seemed forced and unnecessary to me. The main character also waffled too much for my liking - at first she was a spitfire, and by the end of the book she was crying all of the time. Blah. Either my tastes are changing, or Carolyn Davidson didn't have her usual "spark" in this one. ( )

Book description
He was a Civil War veteran, wounded in body and soul. And when his wife died unexpectedly, he retreated from life, craving only solitude and his happy memories. But his young son needed a mother's love and guidance — even if Jake wanted no woman himself. So who better to choose than the town's spinster schoolmarm?

She had come to warn Jake his son was running wild. But she stayed because beneath his gruff exterior she saw Jake's pain and loneliness. Having borne the brunt of ridicule all her life, tall, plain Alicia understood both all too well. But could Jake ever learn to share his home and his heart?
