Glass Artist Lucy Marrin doesn't know where to turn. Her boyfriend of two years has just dumped her. To top it off, he has left her for her younger sister, Alice. While mulling over her options, Lucy meets Sam Nolan. Sam is interested in getting to know Lucy a little better. But he makes it clear that any relationship with him will be commitment free. He has an aversion to marriage after seeing his alcoholic parents marriage problems. Lucy doesn't want another relationship, but soon finds herself drawn to Sam and his family.

I really liked the characters in this book. Lucy has been hurt over and over again by her sister and parents. She needs someone she can trust who will stand up for her. Sam came from a dysfunctional family and doesn't think marriage is something that will work for him. He soon changes his mind after falling for Lucy. We get to see the characters from the previous book in the series, and also meet two cousins who will figure into future books. The only thing that didn't really work for me was the magical elements in the story. It felt out of place to me. I deducted half a point for them. My rating: 4.5 Stars.
