This is, I admit, a reread for me. This was the first book that I read by this author and I was very eager to go back, once I realized that it was a part of a series, and read the previous ones in the series. This was so loosely connected to the previous books that it was almost like a standalone, which was good the first time I read it, and even to a point, this time. There were some mentions to previous books, but it was easy enough to follow along to those references.

This book is about a couple that is learning to overcome their differences, their misunderstandings, and learning to trust each other, and grow, not only closer to each other, but closer to their families.

This is a slower paced book, but it flows evenly and well. A lot happens, but the plot is very much character driven and it needs to be understood that while it seems to be mostly romance, there is some intrigue involved, and learning more about family members and their past.
