Great addition to this series!!

This second book in this series was a good read that I enjoyed throughout. In this book we get Beckett and Eliza's story and it was an emotional read on from the beginning as both characters have some heavy issues to work through.

Eliza, a widow friend of the Montgomery clan is trying to work through her grief a year after her husband's death. She finds out that her husband had a long going affair with a former high school girlfriend and fathers a child with the other woman who in turn is looking for money from Eliza for the child. Eliza chooses to keep the news of the affair from her friends that have been there for her since the time of her husband's death.

Beckett has been harboring a secret from his family about being a victim of a mass shooting. During the shooting he was inured and one of is friends was killed. He has spent the last year keeping those close to him in the dark and trying to deal with his feelings and fears from the shooting.

The pair find themselves at the same resort on vacation. They spend a lot of time together and then act on their attraction. The pair have chemistry that is off the charts and once they accept that they have feelings to go with their attraction they then must deal with the secrets that they have kept from others.

This was a well written story and the grief as well as the issues that both characters was palpable. The characters were believable and easy to relate to. I enjoyed the return of the characters from the first book as well as the other supporting characters. In the audio version of this book, the narrators Emma Wilder and Aaron Shedlock did a great job bringing this story to life making it an entertaining listening experience. Overall, this was a good book that I would recommend to others.

Another Winner!

I loved it! It had so much in it that I almost forgot how much I lover her Montgomery book series! I can’t wait for the next one and I hope she never stops writing more of them. Even of the kids and grandkids when they are done!
