A gem of a story!
Ellie Marsden comes back to Branding Iron after leaving her big city job. She drives in with her little poodle, newly divorced and very pregnant. She can’t wait to get to the small town with a slower pace and to enjoy the safety of her mother’s home. Immediately she has her sister-in-law wanting her to go to her restaurant and Ellie runs into the reason that she left town ten years ago. Jubal McFarland is still a tall, rugged hunk, but now he is a widower with a darling daughter, Gracie. Slowly Ellie and Jubal both learn that they both want to stay away from each other but they can’t deny the old feelings are still there after all this time. I really enjoyed this tender love story of second chances that engages you until the very end. Great characters and a sweet story that would appeal to anyone who loves contemporary romance.
