Having recently read The Coppersmith Farmhouse, I was super excited to read the next instalment in this fantastic series. I really enjoyed the first book, and enjoyed book 2, just as much, if not more. 
 This is a great second chance romance between Emmeline and Nick. There is a 9 year gap from their first time of meeting through to the present day, where fate causes them to stumble upon one another once again. Nick has never forgotten his Emmy, and although both are leading very different lives there are elements that neither of them have ever forgotten. Emmeline has moved on, but needs a fresh start from the fast pace of New York, and moves to become a new teacher in a new town in Montana, very different from the life she is used to. 
 Nick is the Fire Chief in Prescott, where Emmy has moved too, and because of that he decides fate must be on his side, and there is no way he is letting her get away for a second time. Emmy on the other had has different ideas and decides it presents the perfect opportunity for closure once and for all so she can move on with her current boyfriend. 
 This is a great story, with some great show of Alpha male characteristics, determination and of course plenty of love. It's a sweet and sexy story which a relative slow-burn. There are some brilliant parts of the story line which adds some drama and an element of suspense, with a fast paced twisty plot. 
 As well as the main characters, I also loved all of the secondary characters which feature. With some very funny moments, but also the serious side, there is a little bit of everything. If you read the Coppersmith Farmhouse, you will be pleased to know there is plenty from Jess, Gigi, Maisy and all of the others that were in the first book!! 
 I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to see what Devney Perry brings us next. An author I will definitely be reading more from!!! 
 4.5/5 STARS
