A year ago, ex-Delta Force operator Steven Roark left the rigors of combat behind to run fishing charters in Hope Harbor, decompress, and talk some sense into his kid brother. Business is good--but making peace with his past is more challenging than he expected.
First-grade teacher Holly Miller leads a quiet, low-profile existence--until she's recruited to advocate for a cause that's dear to her heart. When she solicits Steven's assistance, sparks fly--especially after they find themselves on opposite sides of an issue that disrupts their placid seaside community.
As these two seemingly incompatible souls search for common ground, might they discover a deeper connection--and find that love can banish darkness and light the way to a future filled with promise?
Bestselling and award-winning author Irene Hannon invites you back to Hope Harbor--where hearts heal . . . and love blooms.

As I’ve said before, I have a difficult time with Christian fiction. They’re usually a hit or miss for me. This one was a little bit in between.

I actually enjoyed a few of the characters in this story and the overall character arc of Holly, Steven, and Patrick. But, especially in the beginning I had a really difficult time stomaching Holly.

Even as a Christian, I felt that some of her views were slightly unbelievable–but even more unbearable. I found myself, literally, cringing at some parts.

Altogether, this story has a great message of redemption and change–even for the most pious of characters–and I can appreciate that.

The writing was great and I’m really curious as to what this series will become.
