Isabel has come home to Fools Gold to work in and spruce up the family bridal boutique, Paper Moon, until her parents return from their vacation and are ready to sell it. Isabel has dreams of her own in the fashion world and they run deeper than wedding dresses.

Ford Hendrix is also back in Fools Gold and Isabel cant help but think he is avoiding her because from the time she was 14 to 24, she wrote him regularly while he was serving in the Navy. He never once responded and while she is not the same girl as she was when she was 14, one doesnt forget their first love.

These two fall into an easy friendship built on the necessity of an over bearing mother. Their relationship is fun and flirty and the sparks do fly. I loved the way they teased and joked with each other and watching them build their new lives was a treat. Ford was a lot more approachable and light hearted than I had anticipated. After hearing so much about the long lost Hendrix brother in previous books I was expecting a broody mysterious type. He was a little gun-shy in the relationship/family department but I guess that comes with years of being away from home and in the service.

I love this series and this book, and my only complaint, just like in the previous book, is that the endings in Just One Kiss, Two of a Kind and now this one are all very similar and tie up too quickly. Other than that it is practically perfect and as always leaves you impatiently wanting more.
