About the book:
Welcome back to Heritage, Michigan--the small town with a big heart
When she hears that the town of Heritage is looking for a new librarian, Libby Kingsley jumps at the opportunity. Little did she know the library is barely more than a basement room stuffed with dusty, outdated books. What the community really needs is a new building. But the only funds available are those being channeled into the new town square, and the landscape architect in charge of the project wants nothing to do with her plans.
All Austin Williams wants to do is get the town square project finished, and he hopes it is enough to save the family business. Then he can extricate himself from the town that reveres the brother who cost him so much. But the local media and the town's new librarian seem to be conspiring against him at every turn. Will the determined bookworm find her way into his blueprints--and possibly even his heart?

My review:
I enjoyed this story that took us back to the charming town of Heritage. I liked getting reacquainted with the wonderful characters, especially as we got to revisit what was hinted at in book one with Nate and Olivia. I liked that we saw more of his past and what made him tick, even though I was a bit frustrated with his stubbornness. I also enjoyed getting to know his brother and he was also incredibly stubborn as he was dealing with his unforgiveness toward Nate. I have to admit the boys drove me a little nuts with how they acted. I felt for Libby and a trauma she went through that gave her anxiety and a distrust of men especially. I admired her courage and how she worked to make things right. She hadn't trusted God since her brother Luke was kidnaped when they were children and I loved that she read 'The Hiding Place' and learned from Corrie Ten Boom's faith. I also liked Olivia and her straightforwardness and determination. There were some wonderful romantic moments. It works as a stand-alone but I'd recommend the first book as it was amazing and Luke and Nate feature prominently in that one as well. I'd recommend this story if you like romance
I received this ebook free from Revell. I was not compensated for this review. All opinions are my own.
