A touching modern fairy tale that won't let go of your heart, from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fool's Gold romances!
Mathias Mitchell's easy smile hides a world of hurt. After the worst kind of family betrayal, he moves to Happily Inc., California—the wedding destination town supplies a steady stream of bridesmaids, perfect for his "no promises, no pain" lifestyle. Yet he can't stop watching for his beautiful, elusive neighbor on the animal preserve behind their homes.
Gamekeeper Carol Lund knows she's not special enough to attract an alpha male like Mathias, so his offer to help her adopt a herd for her lonely giraffe is surprising—and his determined seduction, even more so. But just as she finally welcomes him into her bed, his careless actions crush her heart. Will she give him a second chance to prove she'll always come first in his heart?
So here's the thing, as much as I liked this book I wish it was shorter. I would've much preferred this book be split into two where each of the sisters get their own focused story rather then the back and fourth between four characters. I have a hard time focusing on books with more then 2 characters and it took me a bit of time to get used to the characters, who was with who, and separating the stories at times. Eventually I did get used to it but I think I would've appreciated both stories a bit better if there wasn't that confusion going on for myself. Looking past that I did like the stories there was times it dragged and some parts felt like the story could've dont without but it was still an enjoyable read. I enjoyed seeing the characters and learning about them. Learning about the backstories and different point of views so see what was really going on in the mind of the characters to make some interesting decisions. Overall this book was pretty good, too long for my tastes but still an enjoyable one.
