Publisher Description

With his dog by his side…

Is a second chance within reach?

After losing his family and his leg in a car crash, widower Dirk Matthews dedicates his solitary life to woodworking and his mobility service dog, Molly. That is, until a troubled kid steals from his truck. Desperate to reach her grieving oldest son, widow Tessa Wagner agrees to have the boy help Dirk work on her family’s ranch. Only she doesn’t expect her own connection with the carpenter. Soon they’re feeling more than the shared loss of loved ones. But will past heartbreak stand in the way of their future?

From Love Inspired: Uplifting stories of faith, forgiveness and hope.

“I thoroughly enjoyed this book! I would highly recommend this book to all my friends. It was a sweet story of hope, love, and healing. I loved all the characters, but I especially connected with Tessa, a boy mom like me. I loved watching her inspiring story of being such a wonderful mother even amidst hard times. I was inspired to love more, my kids, my family and even my amazing dogs who understand more than I think they do. I have wanted my amazing dogs closer to me after reading this book. I’m off to snuggle all my people…yes my dogs too”

“I have read almost all of Mindy’s books. There’s only four still on my TBR of her backlist, I think. This one is my new favorite of all her releases I have read so far. This story captivated me from the first pages and I devoured this story. It has fantastic characters and one of the best storylines I have ever read from the Love Inspired line and I have read my fair share of LI books over the years. I am excited to know that some of the other supporting characters in the book will get their own stories over the next few months. Loved this one! I received a copy of this book from the author and was not required to post a positive review. All thoughts are my own.”
