This is only my second full length book by Woods and I was surprised how much this story mirrored "A Slice of Heaven" (where Annie and Ty's relationship began as teenagers). I'm hoping that Woods isn't the type of author who just recycles characters and plotlines.
In comparison to "A Slice of Heaven" this one dealt with infidentality a little better. It didn't have as much melodramatic reactions and was more about communication and discussing fears. The end came too quickly though, kind of slapped on. I would have liked if Woods spent a little more time how Annie and Ty were going to make this work, especially with Ty going back to baseball and groupie temptations. But I guess it might get addressed in Sarah's book.
What I liked consistently about Wood's characters is that they are not perfect. They have the same thoughts, fears, insecurities that make them human although it might not make them popular.
After reading two of Woods books I have to wonder if any of the men in her town of Serenity is faithful or do they have to cheat at least once just to appreciate what they have. And is the message that women are supposed to be forgiving. She does tend to throw a bit in there about God and Christianity which bugs me a bit but she doesn't harp on it.
Overall it was a quick read. I have developed some reservations about this author but I will have to read a few more of her books to see if she is worthwhile as a whole.
