This was just the book I needed to read yesterday! I needed a feel good story with a happily ever after ending and that is just what I got. This book was the beginning of a new series with great brothers to be the heroes of the stories and a small town setting that sounded lovely. As with many first in series stories the groundwork had to be put in place and not everything could be revealed immediately - so, even when I wanted more information about say an accident or adoptions or family life in the Monroe home or what High School was like or...other things...I had a feeling more would appear later in future books and that was fine because I did not HAVE to know to make this book work. Zach was the last child adopted into the Monroe family. He arrives silent, moody and dealing with a miserable past. Chelsea, his sister, is the one who is always there for him and a strong force in his life. His brothers are all different and their sibling interactions not dwelt upon but rougher than perhaps they would have been if they had all had easier childhoods. Zach at points in his life has injured himself and others, he has become more introverted and driven as a result of what has happened, he has self-esteem issues and is tied up in knots though confident at work and doing well in that aspect of his life. Since this is a second chance at love sort of story there is a woman and her name is Sophie. Sophie is one of those injured by Zach in the past. She is a realtor, active in the community, able to cope with much and has a marvelous cat named Flynn. She and Zach have been aware of one another a LONG time. I enjoyed Zach and Sophie together. I liked the fact that she was strong enough to challenge Zach and to stand up for what she felt she deserved. I liked Zach's ability to temper his anger, help his friends and see a vision of what could be in the future. I enjoyed this story and look forward to finding out more about the brothers, reading about their interactions as they work on their group project and who they will ultimately end up with. Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for the copy to read and review.
