Susanne Dietze never fails to put a smile on my face after reading her stories, whether historical or contemporary. This newest offering from the author is no exception. The story has it all - romantic tension as main characters duel for the same retail space, adorable twins, fun pets, difficult family relationships that lead to reconciliation, hurts in the past that require healing, and dependence on faith and God's leading. It's a book you can read in one sitting and feel warmed all over after finishing.
Tom is a relatable hero, a widower trying to rise out of the ashes of grief and regret so that he can be a better dad for his twins. Delia is a sweetheart, trying to keep her antique store afloat while putting together a town museum. Their friendship is sweet and special, given that they're competing against each other for the same retail space on Main Street - he to start an outfitters store and she to start a museum. Tom's twins are precious and charming.
