Description

Lying on her job application wasn’t the best way to kick off her fresh start in a small town, but Heather Smith is out of options. She desperately needs the job, or she will soon be without a place to live. Even so, Heather truly likes Elizabeth Harland, the old woman who hired her as her caregiver, and is eager to work hard and prove she’s right for the task.

Now, if she could just figure out why a local farmer keeps casting suspicious glares her way...

Sure, Grayson McCade has his hands full with his farm. That doesn’t change the fact that he considers the residents of Harland Creek family, and he takes time to look out for them all. The second he learns a newcomer has been hired to care for Elizabeth, he worries the kind-hearted old woman is being scammed.

Acting on what he believes to be the best of intentions, he sets out to uncover the truth about Heather’s past. Will the secrets revealed tarnish Heather’s new start before it even begins? Or will Grayson help make Harland Creek the home her heart longs for?

    Not very exciting. I kept waiting for excitement. It didn’t happen. Just a story. Not really an ending.
  • Enjoyed this!

    A sweet, moving and authentic romance, woven through with faith. With my work in the justice system, I really appreciated that the protagonist had a history in the foster system-which contains good, bad and ugly. I look forward to reading mire of Jodi Brice’s books and will recommend them to others.

    I loved the story, not vulgar or x-rated, did not like the comments about the Catholic Church. You are too good a writer to belittle any person or group. Fran

    Although some readers might think this story to be “sappy”, I enjoyed the small country town setting and the simple joys of the people. The heroine felt real to me and I sympathized with her almost hopeless situation. There were true generosity and kindness displayed by the townspeople. Also, a HEA is important! Some further editing is needed.

    Excellent simple romance without too much junk crowding out the story. I appreciate the goodness and morals that shone through.
