Such a cute read that starts with a little breaking and entering. Addie has lost her dog, Barnable, until she happens to hear him barking from someone’s basement and attempts to rescue him. Ryan is a workaholic who has always treated relationships like he does a business transaction and the last thing he expects is to find some beautiful woman breaking into his house.

Daphne is out to prove to herself she is capable of anything she sets her mind to and looking for a getaway from the chaos that has been her life lately. She has endured heart ache that I could not even imagine and then the ultimate betrayal by someone who was supposed to be by her side through thick and thin.

Flynn is not only attractive but hardworking, loyal, and will do anything for those he loves. He is a silent and brooding type of guy that doesn’t want to disrupt the way he currently lives his life he likes working hard for his resort and he loves taking care of his siblings yet deep down he craves something more. Flynn tries so hard to fight his attraction to Daphne and comes off as rude or grumpy, but that fight doesn’t last long.

This was such a great read about learning to find yourself, finding love again, and trying move forward when all in the world makes it seem like it’s impossible.… (more)
