If only someone will take the job so oil rigger Holt Jefford can stop making beds and burning breakfasts. And then someone does: a lovely single mother with a baby boy—and secrets.
Sweet, kind Cara Jane is scared of her own shadow—why? Holt warns himself not to trust his skittish new employee, but watching her with her son and his old granddad breaks through his guarded heart. Holt senses she's hiding out here in Eden, Oklahoma. Good choice, because the place comes with her own small-town hero.
Her Small-Town Hero Reviews
-
A good sweet read. I liked this characters and their personalities. It really goes to show how hard it is to do what you know if right sometimes and how far doubt can go towards making you upset. Great for an anytime read and some self-reflecting thoughts. Written well with emotions, a little suspense, sweetness, stress and a perfect HEA. Enjoy

I enjoyed this story, although I felt like the ending was a little rushed and just came out of nowhere. That's the only thing that really bothered me. Otherwise, very enjoyable story.

I had a rough time with some of the grammar, but overall, a good read. Did a good job laying out the road to salvation without being heavy handed and showed Christians in a realistic light.

Very endearing story of a broken women with a young son, looking to make a fresh start and heal her heart from past wounds. She finds a town that opens its heart to her and the people really become her family. Very sweet story of how God leads our lives in ways we can't even imagine and how faith can make us whole again when we put God first. I really enjoyed how Arlene James carried out this story line. Looking forward to more from this author!

I reread some books or favorite parts of them from time to time. I just finished reading this for the second time. There's not just one scene that comes to mind as a favorite so I read it cover to cover.

I enjoy this book. It's a little far-fetched and fast paced but it's sweet.

Enjoyed this one quite a bit. One thing that was particularly fun about reading this book is that it takes place near where I'm from. I always enjoy that! :)
