This charming romance is set in Paris, Texas, a small town with a lot of people who have very big hearts. April Maxwell, now a marketing manager with a designer firm in New York City, returns to her sprawling ranch home to care for her dying father. Her childhood friend, Reed Garrison, welcomes her but wonders if she's inclined to settle here or return to the big city. April shares a loft apartment with her amusingly named cousins, Summer and Autumn.

Part of the novel's charm is Reed and April reconnecting and seeing how different their lives are, yet how similar they both are. Along the way, they have a romantic dinner at the ranch, deal with teenage vandals, and argue repeatedly. However, the ending is worth it; it's set in New York City and is very sweet, if a little derivative. A good read for a rainy (or sunny) day.
