I really enjoy Cara Colter's books in general, but two very special things happen here. This is the story of a love that grows between Abby, a struggling single mother who's been burned by romance in the past, and Shane, a widowed ex-policeman struggling with the tremendous guilt generated by his perception of having failed his first wife. As some reviewers have remarked when talking about the other two Wedding Legacy books, the circumstances that bring the characters together do seem farfetched, but two aspects of this story are particularly worth your notice. First, Shane is different from many of Cara Colter's other heroes, in that he doesn't understand his own motives as quickly as many of them have. This gives his character depth and a little more edge, and insures more character development. Second, I am impressed with the treatment of Shane's memories of his first marriage--like A Bride Worth Waiting For, this story affirms that there can be more than one beautiful love in a lifetime. This story also again showcases its author's talent in portraying young children.
