I enjoyed this book very much. I liked the setting and the people in the book. It was a little bit different from her usual books and I like the idea of a different style of book from this author.

I really enjoyed this book. I am not a huge lusty romance novel reader, but this one had a great story line, and some suspense. Its a good fast read

This is the first book I have read by Jodi Thomas. My mom LOVES her writing so I thought I would give this a shot. My mom really liked the book. I wasn't too sure, though. I thought it started out kind of slow, but my mom told me to hang in there. I am glad I did. The storyline picked up and I couldn't put the book down. Great read!! I will read more by her definitely!!

Very good story! Not sure why it says 'young adult' because the subject matter appealed to me! This book is told in 1st person alternating between the main woman and the main guy which may irritate some; it didn't bother me at all. A group of misfits become family and come together to help deal with a problem in their community. This is one of the few authors I've read and enjoyed that didn't include sex in their books. The 'sex' was at the end and behind the scenes so to speak. Other authors this reminds me of are Debbie Macomber, Curtiss Ann Matlock, and some of Sherrly Woods'. The basic them of starting over and finding herself reminded me of the theme of the now discontinued Harlequin Next titles except the female was still pretty young in this story.
