meh..not my favorite. I think i was intrigued because of the single mom thing. but of course life is rosey and all is well in the book. and everything coincidential happens.. like a down syndrome scare..shes 25, no history of it in her family or baby daddies, but she tests positive? and coincentally she also works with down syndrome people? yeah okay. and of course shes got the perfect backup daddy waiting in the wings.. grrr. as a single mom, that ticks me off. i get arses and buttholes, and she gets this gorgeous man that is willing to raise a baby and helps her with every step of the way. BAH! i say. get some trauma in your life. This book started off a little slow,but a quarter of the way through it picked up and got really interesting. I then didn't want to put it down. In its own way it is a love triangle.Hadley is a girl still trying to find where she belongs. She graduates college and goes off to Europe with her best frined Auden for a month. She gets really sick and has to come home early. This ends up being a good thing. She has to turn down a teaching position at the high school, but ends up working teaching adults with disabilities and loves this job. She can't picture having a more rewarding job. Since coming home from vacation her and her boyfriend of six years Tucker are not getting along well. He is a jerk and decides he is going to break things off with her the same night she has a secret to tell him. She soon realizes that just because it wasn't in your life plan doesn't mean it can't turn into an AMAZING thing. She runs into Jason, Auden's older brother. It has been a while since she has seen him. She is amazed to find that the attraction she has had for him since she was eight is still there. Jason is an amazing writer. He has a chance run in with Hadley one day when she is on a field trip with her clients(the adults she teaches). He then realizes that day that he wants to let Hadley know that he has had feelings for her for several years. That he is willing to fight Tucker for her and show her who the better man is. Can he be the better man? Can there love they hid from each other grow into something BIG? Can they overcome the obsticles thrown at them?This book was really good. I love that we learn that we can do things even if it wasn't in our original plans. Not everything has to be planned out. It was an amazing journey that Hadley and Jason went on to get where they did. I really wanted to give this book 5 Stars, but it was a little too slow at the beginning for me. I would recommend reading it. I hope that Auden will get a book.
