1) Heartwarming romance that was very well written. I really liked the interaction between the characters. Not real fond of the back and forth in the story from past to present. The setting for me was spot on.

2) I really enjoyed this story. Loved that it was two stories in one. I hope there is a sequel! Not your cookie cutter typical story.
