What a beautiful story, I loved this. Reeling from the choices he made in Afghanistan that cost his friend, Spence's life, Nick's in Snowberry to bring Spence's friend, Callie, the dog Spence rescued oversees. Spence left everything to Callie instead of his greedy uncle and Callie is thinking about turning Spence's house into a B&B. At loose ends, Nick sticks around first only agreeing to help with the overgrown lawn but his attraction to her fights against his need to leave.

What I loved the most about this story was how simple and gentle it was. Callie understands the issues returned soldiers face and gives Nick the space he needs. Nick's attraction to her is tempered by his guilt over liking "Spence's girl". They are attracted to each other, but that doesn't consume their thoughts 24-7. There's a B&B to put together, break ins, and theft to contend with and a fun cast of secondary characters, some of which I hope show up in future books.

Nick's guilt and hot and cold reactions to Callie get a little tiring but it was a minor irritant and I'm looking forward the other books in the series.
