Publisher Description
He was the boy who held her after her abortion. Now he's the man who wants a second chance at her heart...
For twenty years, Seth Kincaid has kept his visits to his home town brief. He's not avoiding January Howe, exactly—he's giving his high school girlfriend space. But that distance evaporates when she takes over her family's marina for the summer. Which means every time he flies his floatplane into the harbour, she's there, and the temptation to fall into her sunny smile and forget about the past is stronger than ever. He can't resist lending a hand, though. Not when she needs the help.
January has a lot on her plate. She's temporarily raising her niece and nephew while her sister is overseas, and running the family business, too. The last thing she needs is the dangerous risk of pretending a fling with Seth could be simple. Except the grown man version of the boy she once dated is…perfectly easy. He helps with the kids, no questions asked, and then once they're asleep, satisfies her in ways her eighteen-year-old self couldn't have imagined.
But two decades of distance is a shadow layered on top of complicated, long-ago memories.
Whatever this temporary magic spell they are under, it can only be for the summer. Any chance of something else between them evaporated the day Seth joined the Air Force—and broke her teenage heart.
Customer Reviews
5 Stars for this second chance romance!
I have been waiting for Seth and January's story ... and I was not disappointed! I can't say enough great things about this series. The writing captures everyday people and their lives to a T. The realistic banter makes me feel like I could live right there in the pages of the book. I loved how January and Seth had this natural way with each other ... knowing what the other needed before they even knew. I loved how Seth just stepped right in to help January when he saw she was struggling with her new roles. And as usual for Ms. York's books, the steam is at a 10! The last Kincaid brother's (Josh) story is up next and I'll be so sorry to see this series end. I would have liked a story on January's sister August and then there's Shaye ... I know there's a story there.
Seth and January had a secret relationship back in high school that apparently wasn't so secret. But when high school ended, January went off to college while Seth joined the Air Force. Twenty years later, January is a teacher in Pine Harbour while Seth has his own business flying clients into northern Ontario. Even though his base is in Blind River, last summer he starts flying out of Pine Harbour three days a week. January's sister August runs the marina, but goes on a six-month tour of duty and January takes over her duties at the marina and looking after August's two teenage kids. She knew she'd have to see Seth later in the summer three days a week, she just wasn't prepared to see him her first day, when nothing was going right. Seth almost swallowed his tongue when he saw January behind the counter at the marina, in nothing but a little night shirt. All those memories come rushing back for both of them ... love and broken hearts.
