Who knew fate could twist a tragedy into a second chance at love?
Samantha Winters lives her life the way a good accountant should—measured, deliberate, and safe. After watching her father die in a tragic skiing accident, she decided never to allow risk into her life again. But she didn’t count on falling for Nick Chastain, who embodies everything she doesn’t want in her safely constructed world.
Against Samantha’s warnings, Nick plans a dangerous kayaking trip over spring break. Furious that he’s so careless with his life, she ends their fledgling relationship with harsh words.
Two years later, Samantha is desperately in need of a change. When she learns her grandmother has had an accident and is in need of a caretaker, Samantha quickly packs her bags and heads to Thunder Creek, Idaho. But nothing could prepare her for the surprise awaiting her in her grandmother’s hospital room . . . Nick.
With the charming backdrop of small-town friends, beloved cousins, and a whole church congregation rooting for them, can they set aside the disastrous ending of their first try at love? Has Nick changed enough to meet Samantha in the middle—and can she realize that a risk in love might be worth taking?

My Review
Another great book by Robin Lee Hatcher. I loved this one. The characters are well written. Samantha has been with her employer for years and keeps getting passed over when their is a position opened to move up. Her grandma falls and gets hurt so what a good time to take a leave of absence from her job to help out caring for her. No man in her life or other family her parents are gone now and she still lives in a lot of fear from how her father died. Her old boyfriend no longer around lived to dangerous for her. But to her surprise he is the one that helped her grandmother and was their waiting in the hospital with her. Can this old flame rekindle? Can Samantha over come her fears and also believe Nick is a changed man. Will she allow God back in her life? Wonderful well written story!
I loved this book it was so good, I never put it down once I stated reading it!
