A good story without violence or profanity; an upbeat romance with a happy but believable ending; a novel that makes you feel good about life--you'll want to leave this lying around for your kids to find. The characters talk like real people, have real needs, make mistakes, learn hard lessons. They grow in their faith and in their relationships with each other, and set an example for those around them...and for you and your family. Melissa, an artist from California, takes a vacation with her kids to the coast of Maine, hoping for some quality family time at a turning point in their lives. They meet Kraig, a writer from Oregon, walking on the beach with his guide dog. He's slightly younger, articulate, gentlemanly, deeply intuitive...unlike any other man she's known. Neither is looking for love--but life has other plans. What happens when Melissa realizes she might have to choose between her lifelong dream of living in Maine...and being with Kraig?
