"Lucy and Brian are two young people in love who aren’t fully prepared for the realities of domesticity but are learning as they go. Author Heather Brooks handles these conflicts between her characters with love, a touch of insecurity, a bit understanding and passion. She does a wonderful job making her readers empathize with her characters. Well done Ms. Brooks!"
