What should Joanne Reece do when her antique shop burns down, a local Underground Railroad house needs saving, and a certain new doctor in town needs a friend? Attempt to juggle it all, of course. Especially when the doctor is handsome Stratton Sawyer...and he seems to be the key to a happy future. Soon, Joanne is regaining her self-confidence, working at the Payton Historical Society, and fending off her meddling family. She is also seeing an awful lot of Stratton. He seems to enjoy old houses, Bingo outings, and moonlit walks as much as she does. Thank goodness, because accident-prone Joanne needs him around to patch up her frequent scrapes. Stratton needs her to break the icy reserve of the townspeople, who don't quite trust a new young doctor. And they both need someone to love.
If you want a really sweet feel good romance, then this book is for you. I fell in love with this book and the characters. Mary Beth and Cameron are just so right for each other from the minute they meet as he seeks to find a buried treasure and she, with his help, make repairs on her house, while they are discovering love with each other and doing what they want to do in their lives. This is a very good book that will make you feel good inside!!
Very sweet romance

If you are searching for a book that you can share with your family, and especially a romance that you could give to your 13 to 17 year old daughter, this is an excellent choice. As an adult, I enjoyed it, but there was a little less tension than I would have liked. I gave it four stars because it is a very good choice for a young adult. The characters were very likeable, but, as I mentioned, there might have been a little more excitement, without losing the innocence.
