Jake Tanner may have recovered from the physical injuries he sustained on the job as a police officer, but his heart has yet to heal from losing his former partner in the tragedy. He's poured himself into starting a camp for the sons of fallen officers and mentoring Sam, the adult son of his deceased partner, who's asked him to be his best man at his wedding.
Mia is expecting a mess when she arrives to sort out the situation with Lucy, but she wasn't expecting Jake. And Jake, who can't help envying Sam and Lucy, doubts he'll ever experience their happiness for himself. But maybe Jake's courage and Mia's caring spirit are just what they need to bring them a lifetime of healing and a forever kind of love. . . .

My Thoughts...
By far Bylin's best book and Yes I have read most of hers. This was one of the books I had ben waiting to read. It was so worth the wait.
The cast of characters were so familiar so real. This is a book that hits on some very hard but real life issues. I for one feel the same about Alzheimer's that I do cancer.
This is a fantastic contemporary read and one that I hope everyone reads. It is a feels books so get ready to laugh and cry and just be plain emotional from the beginning to the end. Great romance and you are going to love Mia and Jake.
I can't wait for Bylin's next book. I can't recommend this book enough. This one I will keep on my book shelf and reread.
I gave this book 5 stars and I HIGHLY recommend it.
