If anyone can save him, she’s the one

Jerrod Walters hopes relocating to the coastal town of Two Moon Bay can be the fresh start he and his young daughter need. But the single dad is caught off guard when a beautiful PR professional offers to promote his diving excursions to legendary shipwreck sites. There’s so much he admires about Dawn Larson, starting with the woman’s upbeat, can-do personality. Dawn’s boundless capacity for joy might be the only thing capable of bringing him back to life after his tragic loss…

My thoughts:  Getting past tragedy and grief is a hard thing to do.  It becomes harder when children are involved and the parent has to be there for their child.  both Jerrod and Dawn know what grief feels like. They know loss and bottle their emotions inside.  They also both have amazing children who pull the book along in some instances.

Virginia McCullough does a wonderful job at describing the emotions of the characters.  She makes them very believable and personable.  It was easy to get to know them and like them.  I enjoyed that she doesn't rush her story, she moves it along at a great pace.  This made it easier to connect with the characters and become invested in their story.

This is a great story about overcoming and learning to open oneself to possibilities.  It's a journey that I am grateful I was able to take part in.  The book is clean!

The daughter they never knew

When Miles Jenkins sees the graceful young figure skater on TV, he can't believe how much she resembles Lark McGee, the girl he dated briefly in college. Could this aspiring star be the child Lark gave up for adoption eighteen years ago? He has to find out.

Locating Lark ignites conflicting emotions in Miles—including regrets for what might have been and romantic feelings that take the two single parents by surprise. As they prepare to meet their daughter, this deeper connection between the two just might be the chance at love they never got.
