Max Crawford moved to Whitford several years ago, but really doesn't know a lot of people in the town. With the exception of his Sunday afternoon sports gatherings, he doesn't interact with the community members. But now he is getting lonely and wants to find a wife and start a family. Max decides he needs a girlfriend and begins visiting the Trailside Diner where everyone gathers for meals. Waitress Tori Burns overhears Max trying to strike up a conversation with a women at the diner. She feels sorry for him. He's shy and a little awkward. When she finds out that Max is in the market for a wife, Tori is determined to help him find a date.

Max and Tori become friends as she drills him on topics of conversation and takes him on practice dates. She even lines up a woman for him to ask out. Her outlook on marriage is not good after witnessing her parents' marriage implode. She believes that marriage is not for her, but is willing to help anyone else along the path to matrimony. But Max is quickly learning that Tori is the woman for him. He doesn't feel the pressure of being someone he is not around her. Now he has to convince Tori that they can be more than friends.

This is the last book in Shannon Stacey's Kowalski family series and it's another good one. I've been intrigued by Max since he was introduced. I'm glad he got his own book and think it was a great ending to a very entertaining series. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
