by Susan Saxx

He’s a soldier, bound by rules. She’s an artist, dying for freedom.

Danica Danstead has to get away from her life in the Big Apple. So when she visits her best friend Abby in the northern town of Jack’s Bay, she expects peace and quiet. But she gets anything but. She finds herself smack in the middle of a bunch of former Delta North soldiers. She’s good with all of them…except for Parker Bowles.

Parker Bowles has a heart as big as the northern Ontario outdoors he loves so much. The former Special Ops soldier is perplexed at the small woman’s reaction to him. Yet something about her draws him. He can’t help but keep a special eye on the lonely, yet unpredictable Danica from NY—no matter what she says. Or does.

But when her actions take a surprise turn, he’ll have to follow his heart, despite the rules…

A sweet and intriguing "meet cute" for Parker and Danica. It's set in the small town of Jack's Bay. A interesting and romantic story with quirky and fun secondary characters. Parker and Danica have chemistry and issue to over come. This is a short novella yet is well written and didn't make me feel it was rushed. I enjoyed reading this book and look forward to reading the others books in this series

A delightful story with some sad and disturbing undertones. Parker and Danica had a strange combative first meeting. He, with his love of animals and conservation, and she, with her fear of letting go. Defiantly a "meet-cute " story, short, but sweet and intriguing.
I voluntarily reviewed this Advance Readers Copy gifted to me.

I love a good novella and this one was a "Goodread" Dani and Parker are very interesting characters with more to give us I think. This author really brings alive the sense of place in Jacks Bay, I want to go there! The instalove is done well and boy who doesn't want to sleep under a tree if you've got a Parker of your own! I want to read all the stories of all the Jacks Bay guys.

Danica is feisty, passionate and scared. Parker is handsome, caring and protective. When these two met on a back road in Jack's Bay something happened. This is a lovely, sweet, cute meet novella and I really hope that one day soon we get the rest of their story. A great addition to this wonderful series. I definitely recommend this book .. snuggle up with a cuppa and this short story and enjoy.

I loved Danica and Parker. She's prickly, he's secretive. This was a quick, fun read giving me a little taste of their backstory and how they met. I can hardly wait to read the rest of their story.

Sweet love story. Short but sweet read. Loved the H/h. This is my first in the series. I'm going to have to read the previous ones to catch up on the characters. And what great characters! Really good romance. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC.
