A part of a series that I have come to love and I anticipate every new episode in this fun town in Oregon that is just the perfection of small town. Each book centers around a different person in the town - usually a new move in and this one centers around Seth who is moving back to this town where he grew up and made some mistakes as a kid and will now be the new deputy and have to show the town and some certain people that he is a different man.
Seth and Iris had an interesting story that was a little different from the others because it took the reader into a little history of the town through their friendship and high school days. Being a cop's wife, I thought this book would be right down my alley and I appreciated having a police officer as a central character, but this one just didn't live up to the ones before. The thing I love from Robyn Carr is the sweeping love story and for some reason this one didn't quite sweep me off my feet. BUT if you have been reading this series, I would still read this one because you may need some of the back story for a future book.

This is a NICE book about modern people carving out a life of love and happiness in the middle of what passes for normalcy in the new teens. As a subplot to the love story, Carr takes on an issue that often affect her audiences. This one is date abuse and even some spousal abuse. I've often thought that my romance novels offer me a chance of escape from my own hectic life. This novel hints at how to escape from abusive relationships. Very timely given the stories reaching us from the NFL.
