I didn’t know that Hallmark had a book division until I started this book.  And yeah it feels like a Hallmark movie.  That’s not a bad thing.  It was exactly what you want a Hallmark movie to be, light, fluffy, and romance.  That being said it was not what i wanted a book to be.  It had some extremely cheesy parts, and I think they went way beyond overkill with the “veteran” things.  That the main man is a veteran with a messy past, and the main girl is a military brat whose dad left when she was young become the main issue.  And it would make a fine issue, but it was just done in overkill.  I’m sure in a movie, it would play fine because they would find other ways to show strife, but to keep saying it over and over again.  Ugh.  Overall, I enjoyed the listed, even if I did roll my eyes quite a lot. Will I listen to it next year, no.  Will I watch it if made into a movie, yes.
