                      MY REVIEW 

 What do you get when you meet a sheriff's deputy and a tree trimmer after a storm hits . You get Calvin and Flor.  Flor is a tree trimmer who is working on trimming the trees after a horrible storm when a car hits a tree that she is working on. Calvin is the sheriff's deputy called to the scene and does more than save the kids in the back seat as the tree starts to fall on the car. He jumps to the rescue for Flor who is hanging by a rope at the top of the tree. Before he knows it he is on his butt cutting the line so the other guy can grab her . In the process getting injured. So not going to tell you what he injured but it is pretty funny. She stays with him to help him out and sparks fly. But there are secrets that both of them are hiding and misunderstandings that occur. Will they be able to figure it out before they loose each other. 

    Ok now novella is such a fun read . Calvin and Flor are such an interesting couple. Calvin has been through a lot before he ended up a deputy working with his cousin Kelly Graham. He has been through so much and is still battling his addictions which makes him a little more sensitive to things. He is a sweet guy who wants to be in love .Flor is a good woman who is trying to make it in a world where it is usually men doing it. She doesn't think that she could be loved because of her height and the job she does. Also her home life isn't the best her father has issues that he is working through and is taking his frustrations out on her and her mother. We also get to see Abra and Kelly in this story and well Abra is well Abra and Kelly is still on the force and not so much of a stick in the mud. I must admit that Calvin and Flor are so interesting , they are flawed but also great for each other because of those flaws. There are misunderstandings between them but they do fix them finally , before you want to slap them upside the head a few times . 

   This is one of those books that you can read in a couple of hours . This novella is packed with so much that you will captivated from the first page. The author paints a picture of redemption and finding the love that you deserve. This is a perfect fit in the series . It is short and to the point of what is going on. Another great beach read for this summer .
