Such a sweet book.

Piper is the mayor of Honey Creek Texas and her boyfriend mysteriously disappears. Except - he's not her boyfriend. Her brother hires Colby, a Trooper, to come into town and investigate the disappearance quietly. At the same time, Sam, a firefighter, comes into town pretending to be a traveling preacher following in his father's footsteps.

Piper adamantly refuses to acknowledge Colby and his persistent attempts to woo her but the townsfolk quickly support him in his efforts. Sam, still reeling from the death of the love of his life, refuses to acknowledge that he has feelings for April.

Then, there is Pecos. A local high school kid who drives for Uber but never really signed up with Uber. One night after a high school dance, the girl he's been infatuated with asks him to bring her home and their story begins there.

A cute, sweet, romantic story.

I started out liking this, I was interested in seeing someone gradually recover from being held captive from the ages of twelve to eighteen.

It was going along well enough, I liked that James was treating Millie with kindness and respect, but then all of a sudden this childlike young woman (ten years younger than this man and who knows how much younger emotionally based on how her experience stunted her), initiates sex with him.

And that’s right about where this novella lost me.

Not only did Millie’s desire for James as anything more than a protector or a friend feel out of the blue, I just tend to be uncomfortable with any scenario where someone childlike enters into a sexual relationship. I may have been okay with this had more time been taken with her overcoming her emotional scars, but happening so early on, and the pair not even having a conversation at all about this change in their relationship, it just didn’t sit very well with me.

It also didn’t help that towards the end, even though Millie is still in the picture, it kind of felt like Millie’s voice in the story was lost, you still hear about her but not really from her.
