Crossing Hearts (Cross Creek, #1)

by Kimberly Kincaid

Hunter Cross has no regrets. Having left his football prospects behind the day he graduated high school, he’s happy to carry out his legacy on his family’s farm in the foothills of the Shenandoah. But when a shoulder injury puts him face-to-face with the high school sweetheart who abandoned town—and him—twelve years ago, Hunter’s simple life gets a lot more complicated.

Emerson Montgomery has secrets. Refusing to divulge why she left her job as a hotshot physical therapist for a pro football team, she struggles to readjust to life in the hometown she left behind. The more time she spends with Hunter, the more Emerson finds herself wanting to trust him with the diagnosis of MS that has turned her world upside down.

But revealing secrets comes with a price. Can Hunter and Emerson rekindle their past love? Or will the realities of the present—and the trust that goes with them—burn that bridge for good?

I enjoy a small town romance and this one was catnip for me. Hunter and Emerson were such a great couple and I appreciated how Kincaid brought them back together. There were parts of this story- the heroine's story that were very unique and it was a nice change of pace to read about a main character with real life issues that weren't going to magically go away.

Excellent first book in this series and I'm really looking forward to the next one.
