For some reason, I thought this was going to be the last book in this series. I guess I was wrong.

Abbi is back home to look after the family farm after her father's near fatal accident. While she's there, her mother decides to try and steer her back onto the "right" path by putting her ex in her way every chance she can get. Meanwhile, Abbi questions her ability to maintain Henry's interest when she's not with him.

Abbi has some more growing up to do in this installment. The age difference between her and Henry become evident when her self-doubt creeps in. She questions whether she's enough (not because Henry gives her any reason to doubt that, but her mother does), if Henry's with other women (again, because he mother has her doubting) and what she wants out of her life. This is when her age showed. Instead of having faith in herself and Henry, she allowed other's attempts at pushing him out of her life cloud her judgement. And when that happens, Abbi tends to go off and do something dumb. Let's just say it's a good thing Henry is able to swoop in when he does.

I loved Henry in the book. He's not so much of a hard-ass. He showers Abbi with "things" because it's the only way he knows how to express how he feels for her. Even though I know Abbi is dying to hear the words, you could tell just how big of a step all of this was for Henry.

The book ends with another situation that's going to put Henry and Abbi in close proximity of those that will try to tear them apart. I'll be waiting to see what happens next.
