Review
Annie has had a crush on Ryder since she was a teenager but he never noticed her as more than his little sister’s friend. He left their hometown of Glenville, became a NYPD detective and later an FBI agent. He never looked back until his sister unexpectedly died.
Annie has moved on from her crush, sold her family’s flower shop to buy a tree farm with her three best friends. When Ryder comes home under false pretenses but he finally sees her as a woman, romance blooms in ways she didn’t expect.
This sweet love story is about learning to accept your past to find love in your future. Ryder ran for so long but finally found home when he found Annie. Very sweet. I noticed a few typos but it didn’t take away from the story. I really enjoyed it.
