About this listen
Some things just weren't meant to be - or were they?
Recent nursing school graduate Holly Miller knows from personal experience a slipup can cost a life. A mistake she made years ago still haunts her. She is determined to stay focused and not allow any distractions in her life - including an old high school classmate she ran into at the hospital who is as handsome as the pastries he bakes are tasty and sweet.
Matthew Cook had a crush on Holly back in high school and is surprised to find she's working at the local hospital. She'd rejected him when they were teens, but he seems to have her attention now. Can he convince her that she can have it all - including a love that lasts, without sacrificing her career?

Story
Veterinarian Pete Harding doesn't date single moms. After showing up to a blind date to find he left before she arrived, Keira is reminded why she doesn't date. She had true love once, but a tragic accident ripped him from her and their son, who is now four and only wants a puppy for Christmas this year. Although off limits since she is a single mom, Pete determines to help Keira find the perfect puppy for her son. Keira wonders about Pete. He says he doesn't date women with children, yet she can't help but notice he behaves like a man who has more on mind than finding a puppy.

Cute!
Matthew had a crush on Holly in high school and asked her to prom unfortunately Holly turned him down. Years later they run into each other and he asks her out again only to get shot down again. This time Holly has different reasons like her career being her sole focus. I really liked the faith and nuggets of wisdom woven into this book. Although to me there wasn't as strong of a romance thread as there usually is in Kimberly Rose Johnson books. To me this book was more about Holly and her journey and growth. Also, Matthew's little niece was a cute addition to this story - little kids are so cute with their innocence!
I gave the performance 4 stars because I thought the narrator sounded kind of stilted in some areas.
