“You must be something special.”

5⭐️3🌶️

Tess is still grieving her parents and she sets off on a trip to meet her new-found uncle for the first time. She ends up meeting Kit, one of the local sheriffs deputy’s, when she needs a ride from the airport when her uncle is busy. They continue to cross paths while she’s there but unfortunately Tess’s stay to meet her uncle is short and she has to go back home. But, Kit CANNOT get her out of his mind no matter what he does or how much he tries.  Which is why come May, he gets on the plane to Florida to surprise her at her yearly vacation to The Carmen, a beach resort she used to frequent with her family….i mean…..she did invite him to go………….right?

Kit shows up for Tess from the get go, no questions or doubts about it and I LOVE them. He is so patient with her and cares for her so deeply, even while he tries to navigate his own family struggles  I mean even he talks to a photo of her parents that hangs in the resort lobby 😭  seeing these two fall in love and ALLOW themselves to be loved was so beautiful. Hannah, please expect a bill from my therapist, as per usual 💙
