Jennifer and Mike were friends but they were secretly in love with one another back in high school. He left for the Navy while she stayed home in the little town of Mercy Ridge. He returned after several years and they meet up again after she has car trouble. He’s living with a secret and she’s a reporter, determined to find out the truth. What she learns, however, wasn’t what she expected.
This sweet story focuses on second chances and a love that never died. I really enjoyed watching Jen and Mike come to terms with their past, work through his emotional problems, and look forward to a future together.
Story flowed smoothly with no typos that I noticed. I like JW’s writing style and I look forward to reading more of the author’s work.

Lee is the CEO of a video game company in San Francisco and he’s afraid of turning into his neglectful, workaholic father. Claire is a reporter for the small town newspaper, Mercy Ridge Crier. They met online under false pretenses and, after eight days of no contact, Lee decides to drop a grand and fly out to see Claire for the holidays. Problem is, neither of them really knows who the other is. He claimed to be a FBI agent and she claimed to be a bank executive.
But doesn’t stop love. Lee and Claire were great together. The way he proposed to her was soooo sweet and geeky. I loved it!
I loved revisiting characters from past books and seeing how their lives progressed.
This funny, heartwarming story is perfect for anyone who’s feeling a little down around Christmas. A great read.
