Book description:
Fear has been holding them back
But love can open any door…
Healing from a tragedy has been challenging for Willa Scottson. And not even Camp True North Springs seems to ease the pain. But photographer and swim instructor Bruce Lawrence is determined to help the grieving widow and her twin boys, for their sake—and for his. Carrying his own sorrow and guilt, this is his chance to make amends, if Willa will let him once the truth comes out…
My review:
This book is from the Love Inspired line of books put out by Harlequin. I really enjoyed this one, and it seemed it had less romance than most of their books. This book focused more on the healing process of the boys and their mother.
Two years prior, Willa's husband drowned in front of her. Bruce has guilt from the accident and blames himself, even though Willa and her sons never met him.
I loved the characters, and the author did a great job of showing the struggles of two six year old boys and their mother in conquering their deep fear of water. There's a scene involving a challenge coin and one of the twins that made my eyes water.
There IS romance, but it isn't as prevalent as some of these books, and the book had a great ending. I have read a lot of these books, and I feel this is one of the best ones I have read in regards to "non fluff" content, not that many of these books are that.
Special thanks to the author for an advance e-book copy of this book. I was under no obligation to provide a review and the thoughts contained herein are my own.
