This is the story of Meredith and Gage.  She is learning to have a new life without those she loves controlling her every action.  He is thinking of leaving and just gives her one night.

Meredith has had so much bad happen in her past.  Her parents are very manipulative and do not want her to have a close relationship with her sister.  She comes to live with her sister and brother in law at Tall Pines - after she has had enough!

Gage wants to buy his own property.  He has friends and family here but desires to be his own boss.  He also think Meredith deserves  more than he can give.

The only thing they cannot deny is each other.  The sparks flying off them is almost too hot for anyone else in the room.  Can love conquer all?  Can you really get over your past?

The true meaning of family and real love are just a few of the subjects this book covers.  I found the characters entertaining and fun.  This is another keeper for the shelf!
