Cherry Hill's life is a disaster. First Taylor Johnson, her first love in back in town. Second, a fire has forced her to shut down her diner and has left her temporarily jobless and homeless. Third, her cousin, who was her best friend and like a sister has died in a car crash leaving Cherry the sole guardian of her 8 year old son Sam. And lastly the rest of the Hills are determined to take Sam away from her. Now she must do everything in her power to prevent that from happening and she finds a surprising ally in Taylor. But there is a painful past hanging between them and a secret that only she knows.
I loved they way Sam holds it together and is so mature for an 8 year old. The way he identifies with Rex and opens up to Taylor is so sweet. It was a bit frustrating how Cherry was stubborn about not sharing her secret but then I guess the book would have ended a lot sooner if she did and I was quite enjoying it so that would have been a downer. I hope we get more in this series. Would really love to have a book on Stan.
