A special K-9. A troubled child.

Can their bond heal the past?

Pastor Nate Fisher is confident he can handle a bunch of teenagers and ignore his attraction to camp codirector Hayley Harris for the summer. That is, until he learns a camper with an emotional support dog is the child Hayley placed for adoption thirteen years ago. When a misunderstanding brings Hayley and Nate closer together, keeping the secret becomes impossible. But will the truth reunite a family…or destroy Hayley’s trust forever?

Haley is a camp coordinator for a bunch of teenagers working alongside Pastor Nate. When Pastor Nate is told that one of the campers with a emotional support dog is Haley's child that she put up for adoption it's a secret he's having a hard time keeping.

This was a pretty good book I really enjoyed it. Clearly Pastor Nate had a big secret that he was keeping and it was only a matter of time before he was going to bite him in the butt. Both are seemingly trying to atone from sins of the past where Nate feels guilty about the death of his brother so is living kind of for him and then there is Haley who was a troubled teen who got into drugs and got pregnant and trying to better herself and clearly it's showing and she is doing so much better. It was interesting seeing how they work together and seeing the romance between each other summer. But again the secret could ultimately ruin everything once it comes out and it was interesting seeing how everything was handled in the end. I really enjoyed this book.
