Romance

Annie Sublinski was sixteen when a brief encounter with Ryan Whitmore left her pregnant. Ryan stood by her decision to give up their baby for adoption. Now that child is here in Indigo Springs, forcing Annie to confront the man she's been avoiding all these years.... It seems she underestimated Ryan. He wants to get to know the daughter he thought he'd never see. And her mother. As old feelings resurface, Ryan surprises Annie with the intensity of his passion. He refuses to give up on her...on all of them. But Annie has to forgive herself for the past if she has any hope of building a future. This was a heartwarming story; it truly made my heart sigh. The characters are so believable, they are your next- door neighbors. The town of Indigo Springs is a town that all of us wish to live in. A place of friendship, laughter, love and memories. I love to see how authors will take a story with drama that involves a child and makes it a believable read. Ms. Gardner has done just that with this story. Her writing is tight, clear and understandable. It's a book I'm sure many romance readers are going to love.
