Boy, I would not want to be driving in that storm!

Her husband was killed in a church? Poor thing! No wonder she doesn't want to go.

Such an adorable little girl.

So they are both widowed.

Paul is a good young man.

Now I'm hungry for Italian food.

I like his sneaky approach to fixing her house.

Lemonade from a mix sounds gross.

Poor man. He was caught between a rock and a hard place. He had to do this for his friends. His wife should have understood. The blame for her death lies as much on her shoulders.

I want Paul to paint my room.

Oh, Paul. I want to give you a big hug. Alcoholism is a disease.

It's good to give Paul tasks to keep him busy in a crisis like this.

I like Julianna's idea of heaven.

Girl, you gotta work on your excuses.

Kids bounce back so easily sometimes.

I really loved this book it was just the sweetest love story. I really loved how Callie, Paul and Andie played just as big as a role as Caroline and Matt did. I really loved Callie's little personality and how she just had such a spitfire personality. I really enjoyed that this was a clean cut book. There was nothing I didn't like about this book. I was a short and very quick read. You really can not go wrong with this book its so worth the read.

This was a good book. Love comes softly to the main characters and the little girl was perfect.

I enjoyed reading this book. It was a good story and I was entranced by the characters. It was a good romance!

Caroline was still struggling to cope with her husband's murder when she ran from Chicago to Mountainview, Tennessee. She had inherited her Aunt Nora's home there and was hoping for a fresh start for her and her young daughter, Callie. She didn't expect to show up at her new home during a terrible storm and find Matt Carlson there. He had been asked by her aunt, before her death, to fix up her home for Caroline's arrival.

As Caroline and Matt got to know each other better, she began to see him as her guardian angel; someone who could protect her. But, she wasn't sure she could ever love again. She was still struggling with the grief from her husband's tragic death. Matt was struggling with his own guilt and grief over the death of his wife and unborn child.

Would these two be able to overcome the devastating events of their past lives and be able to see a future together? You'll just have to read this book to find out.

I loved that I was able to really connect to the characters in this book and their emotions. They felt like old friends, people I would normally want to be friends with. This was definitely a Christian-based romance with a clean storyline.

I was given a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

There are lessons learned and unexpected tragedies, healing, trust, and forgiveness., brought through the loving kindness of others like friends and neighbors and family but the main place is JESUS, where it should come from to their hearts.. Matt's nephew is reborn, Matt is alive again and his heart is afresh, Caroline can trust again an her daughter is happy again, but she still feels the loss but O D has it in HIS hands They are so supported by all those around. Them all. Me Manners is one amazing author who can bring out such great thoughts and feeling from not only the main characters but the side characters as well.
